Hochelaga-Maisonneuve Streets

Historically a thriving industrial municipality and a largely francophone (90 %) working-class neighbourhood, Hochelaga-Maisonneuve offers a candid glimpse into Montréal’s francophone history. From recycled factories to beautiful churches to striking institutional buildings, the borough’s architectural landscape tells a tale of transformation and evolution. Hochelaga-Maisonneuve now offers an eclectic mix of small local businesses. From the Maisonneuve Market to Promenade Ontario to Sainte-Catherine Street East, there’s always something new to discover, with a wealth of new restaurants, cafés, local artisans, designers and socially-responsible boutiques ever-adding to the neighbourhood’s allure.
