ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD :
The condo is located at the heart of The Village, one of the oldest downtown neighborhoods in Montreal, built in the middle of the 1800s. It’s streets are lined up with trees and historical 3-floor stone or brick houses topped with slated roofs and window dormers. There are numerous old horse carriage doors, alongside more recent buildings and stunning murals. The neighborhood is sprinkled with manicured city parks and playgrounds, old schools and churches, and laced with large backyard alleyways mainly used as gardens. The history of the neighborhood and of its residents is told at the Musée du fier monde, located on the same street as the condo.
This hip area is composed of an ethnically diverse population including young families with kids, white & blue collar workers, retirees, old and recent residents, LGBTQ2S persons, and students of the nearby Université du Québec à Montreal, all living in harmony. Three main roads cross the Village: first, Sainte-Catherine St., which is the main shopping and entertainment strip of Montreal. Second, Ontario St., which is mainly filled with all types of specialty food stores. Lastly, Atateken St., mainly known for its antique shops, designer stores and art galleries.
