Ben's given a second life

Ben's will live again between the walls of two Montreal museums. The restaurant, created in 1908 and shut down after a long and painful strike of its workers in 2006, has elicited the interest of the McCord Museum and the Musée de la Personne. Both will try to keep its memory alive by collecting some of its objects and interviewing personalities such as patrons and employees.
