Scope & content
Ce plan topographique présente le tracé proposé pour le système d'aqueduc, avec réservoirs et bassins. Cet aqueduc débute à l'entrée du canal Lachine (secteur des rapides de Lachine) et dessert la ville de Montréal. Le document comporte également deux coupes de l'aqueduc ("profile on line to Gregorys" et "profile on rapids line"). Il couvre plus généralement le secteur situé entre les rapides de Lachine à l'ouest et les limites est de la ville (aux environs de la rue Fullum).

What the image shows
A large, faded black-and-white topographical map showing a proposed water supply route for Montreal, drawn as thin lines across a landscape of river channels, islands and shorelines. A dense street grid of the city is shown at the upper right, with a rectangular title block and lettering in the upper centre, and a smaller profile drawing of the aqueduct line runs along the bottom edge. The sheet is creased and worn at the edges.Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
