Mont-Royal Avenue

Around 1890, rows of houses were built along Mont-Royal Avenue. A border between the Villages of Coteau Saint-Louis and Saint-Jean-Baptiste, the avenue rapidly became the Plateau’s main artery. The ground floors were transformed into business premises, which in certain cases meant that a single-storey extension had to be added to the façade. One hundred years later, in 1990, a movement was started to revitalize Mont-Royal Avenue while conserving its buildings. Today, the Avenue offers a variety of fine boutiques and restaurants, proof that it is possible to successfully combine heritage, business and quality of life for residents.
