Built in 1930, the Wellington tower has ceased operations in 2000. Despite the years that have passed and graffiti artists who came to express their art, the structure of the old tower is still ok. When it was in operation, that's where that were managed comings and goings of boats on the Lachine Canal with the coordination of trains on the turn bridge next to the building.
Though it was referred to a revitalization of the tower to convert it to an bicycle halt, we must admit that nothing has been done since the project was announced in 2008.
Yet one year earlier, it has already been mentioned about a development of the Wellington tower for the reopening of the Lachine Canal. It was even talk of an interpretive center about the industrial past of the area. Unfortunately, the project died in the egg.
In fact, the only activity worthy of mention about the Wellington tower was the termination of his equipment, including a huge console to Exporail, the Railway Museum in St-Constant. The console is now displayed on the second floor of the Hays station on the site of Exporail.
Today, accesses are barricaded, but during our visit, the door was wide open. On the equipment side, there is almost nothing except dirts. Otherwise, the walls are covered with graffiti, ceiling tiles have started to fall and the water began to seep everywhere.

The advantage of a 4 hours ride to visit an abandoned sawmill is that we increase our chances of finding an intact place without the slightest trace of vandalism. Or at least, very little.
