Students in technical and pre-u science programs spend a lot of time on this floor, where the chemistry labs are located. If you walk to the end of the A corridor, you can look in the windows of two of the labs that have glass walls.

That’s it for our tour. We invite you to come down to the fifth floor and exit out the main entrance at 3040 Sherbrooke Street. If you need to go back to Atwater metro, you can walk along the 5C hallway toward the de Maisonneuve side of the building and you will encounter the stairs and the escalators. Go all the way down to the level with the lockers and out through the tunnel to the metro. 

Even if you must get back to the metro, we encourage you to take a little stroll through campus on your way back. 

Stepping out the front door, if you walk left you can walk toward Westmount and visit the Peace Garden, which was built by the Dawson community as a peaceful restorative space. If you turn right out the front door, you can walk around toward the Montreal side and access Atwater Avenue via the walkway at the Dawson Theatre. Turn right on de Maisonneuve and you can enter the metro there.
