Salon Marie-Rose, 8415 Avenue Royale

Colour photo of a single-storey, pale pink house. The three-quarter view shows two entrances, one at the side and another at the front. We can see a few white chairs on the little side porch, and a flowerpot containing red blooms at the foot of the side stairs. At the front of the building, bunches of red, yellow, green, and blue balloons are tied to the porch railing. An orange sign in front of the house advertises “Bras: 20% off.” A sign for Salon Marie-Rose hangs perpendicular to the façade, where it can be seen from the road.
