1695 is almost at the north end of its 80-Bleury route, which connected the Park Extension neighborhood around the CP's Park Avenue station to Terminus Craig downtown at the south end. The car is northbound on Park about to turn west on Jean Talon with the station directly in front of it. At downtown end of the route, Terminus Craig was an impressive stone terminal building on Craig Street (today's St. Antoine), which featured two enclosed platforms for a good number of city car routes. It was torn down in 1980 to make way for a convention centre.
