I find the building interesting. Not too big, you can see the function of the lock, which does not require pumps. There are also a number of information boards.

The Saint-Gabriel Lock, also known as Lock No. 3, is located at the Des Seigneurs Bridge in the Sud-Ouest borough on the Lachine Canal.
The Lock allows ships to be raised or lowered 2.6 meters. Many reminders of important manufacturing companies from the past still remain in the area.

The lock itself is not special, but the Canal de Lachine to which the lock belongs is. This allowed the Lachine rapids to be bypassed and was of particular importance for the economic development of Montreal.
