Mile End, Artistic district in Plateau-Mont-Royal, Canada

Mile End features rows of residential buildings with external spiral staircases, multicolored facades, and tree-lined streets between Saint Denis and Hutchison Streets.

The neighborhood started as a crossroads in the early 1800s and developed into a railway hub in 1876 before Montreal annexed it in 1909.

Independent bookstores, art galleries, and music venues fill the streets, while traditional bagel bakeries maintain the neighborhood's culinary heritage.

The district extends from Mount Royal Avenue to Van Horne Avenue, with numerous cafes, vintage shops, and restaurants concentrated along Saint Viateur Street.

Former textile factories now house technology companies, including Ubisoft's Montreal headquarters, which transformed industrial spaces into creative workplaces.
