There are so many great neighbourhoods in Montreal. A short while ago, I had the oppportunity to write about one for a new magazine, the warehouse. Little Burgundy is an up-and-coming quartier, near downtown, but nearer even still to the Lachine Canal, the centre of Montreal’s former industrial heartland. My article is now online, and if you have ten minutes to spare, perhaps you’ll enjoy giving it a look-over!

If you were to move to any neighbourhood in Montreal, and money weren’t a major problem, where would you live?
Now that the hipsters all seem to be moving to Mile End, I think it would be safe to live in the Plateau, actually. But I must say, the very neighbourhood I live in is pretty darn good. 15 minutes from Jean Talon market, close to all amenities, pretty walk-ups everywhere, and Justin Trudeau is my MP! All this for very reasonable rent.
