Charming and pleasant, Montréal’s pedestrian streets invite us to enjoy the best of what our city has to offer. They entice us to take a stroll, socialize, and shop around safely and stress-free.

You can enjoy recreational installations, parklets, terrasses, co-working stations with a Wi-Fi connection, vegetation… all of which were designed with your wellbeing in mind. Most pedestrian streets even offer a cultural programming. It’s no surprise that they are a famous feature of our metropolis!

Once more this summer, the city proposes some ten pedestrian streets, each with its very own personality. This represents more than 2,100 stores that can be accessed on foot, and 9.4 kilometers of developed pedestrian streets. Go discover them and become a tourist in your own city! What better way to appreciate Montréal’s neighborhoods and encourage local businesses?
