Champ des possibles, Green space in Mile End, Montreal, Canada.

The Champ des Possibles extends across 14,171 square meters of natural terrain where plants and animals thrive within an urban environment.

The land operated as a Canadian Pacific Railway yard until the late 1980s, after which nature gradually reclaimed the abandoned industrial space.

Local residents established community gardens and organized outdoor activities, transforming this former railway yard into a neighborhood gathering space.

The site remains open year-round, managed by Les Amis du Champ des Possibles organization, which coordinates maintenance and community initiatives.

This urban wilderness supports 300 plant and animal species, including skunks, foxes, and peregrine falcons within Montreal city limits.
