Neighborhood situated in downtown Montreal. Situated between Sherbrooke street(South), Park avenue (West), the railroad(north) and Iberville street (east).
This area is well known for its cultural scene, since it is the part of town where the largest amount of artists live. It also is home of the main core of Montreal nightlife. Saint-Laurent blvd, Saint-Denis ,and Mont-Royal are the places to go if you want to taste true Montreal nightlife.
The area was first built for proletarians but in the begining of the twenty first century house prices skyrocketed.
