A rendez-vous with Phyllis Lambert at the Canadian Centre for Architecture (CCA) is both mythical and quasi mystical. Lambert is a remarkable woman. She has built a portion of the Montreal that is both immediately recognizable and permanent, but also the invisible Montreal—the one that never saw the light of day, thanks to numerous initiatives to safeguard its rich heritage. This tête-à-tête was published in Forces magazine under the heading “Phyllis Lambert: Montreal heritage.” A blog post? Rather a very special interview.
