The Plateau is a neighbourhood that has been home to several waves of immigrants over the last 150 years. Each group has left marks of its past, which enriches the ongoing cultural life of the area. Today, next-door to McGill and downtown, the Plateau is one of the trendiest (and most convenient) places to live in Montreal. Grocery stores, drugstores, clothing stores, cafés, restaurants, parks, galleries, Mount Royal, metro stops, bus stops, and every other amenity of urban life can be found within a few blocks of the residence. Follow the arrow to see pictures of the neighbourhood.

On Sundays the local English Mennonite congregation meets in the gym.

Churches of most denominations can be found within a 30 minute walk of the residence. Our four closest church neighbours are all Catholic.

We are located near the corner of Duluth Est and Coloniale Street. Duluth is three streets south of Mt-Royal, and two streets north of Des Pins (which in turn is just a few streets north of Sherbrooke). Coloniale is two blocks east of St. Laurent.
