Around the mural
Boulevard Saint-Laurent, often called "The Main", is one of Montreal's best-known streets for murals and independent shops, cafés and restaurants. Pairing this work with a stroll along the boulevard lets you see several neighbourhood moods in a single outing, from busy commercial stretches to quieter side streets of the Plateau.
For details of the work and its background, the City of Montreal publishes a dedicated page for the mural, which is a useful reference before you set out.
