from Québec’s renowned fashion designers, beautiful and exclusive wares for
the home as well as treasures in music and literature. Adding to the lively
ambiance of the street are a wealth of cafés and restaurants, whose sidewalk
terraces fill up with patrons who revel in the food, sun and scenery.

Saint-Laurent, nicknamed “The Main,” is Montreal’s most vital vein -
