		<description><![CDATA[In the middle of the 1980s, after lobbying from businesses and Chinese community leaders, a series of decorative gates were built to mark the various entrances to Montreal&#8217;s Chinatown. One of these is found at the corner of de la Gauchetière and Jeanne-Mance, the western end of the district. But to me, the real signal [...]]]></description>

The women wear brightly coloured saris and the men don long pastel robes, looking striking as they stride along this worn English street.

Marooned between Little Italy to the east, the CPR tracks to the south, the Outremont railyards to the west and Jean-Talon to the north, it&#8217;s a kind of urban interstitial space, not entirely industrial, a [...]]]></description>

In theory, whatever narrow perceptions you&#8217;ve acquired by sauntering through any metropolis&#8217; most busy downtown streets will be balanced out by impressions of its flavor of ragged urban edge. That&#8217;s precisely what my friend Tanveer and I [...]]]></description>

As my train makes brisk progress from Narita Airport to the city centre, I stare out the window at the country fields giving way to suburbia and then a densely crammed cityscape. The city seems calm.

Cars barrel down multilane boulevards devoid of people; a weed-strewn lot slated to become a monument to the country&#8217;s deeply-loved former president, Juan Perón, lies unconvincingly fallow. Then there are the railroad tracks severing [...]]]></description>
