Designer boutiques have sprung up in the area and attract well-to-do professionals and fashionistas alike. The district is especially popular with English-speaking residents and visitors. Simply stroll down the street and head for the places that catch your attention and imagination. One of Montréal's most distinct thoroughfares, Crescent Street runs between de Maisonneuve blvd and Sainte-Catherine. If you get tired shopping you can always pop into the lively bars and cafes that line the street on both sides.
