The Sud-Ouest borough is undergoing a massive transformation, making it one of the hippest neighbourhoods in Montreal. Begun a few years ago, this metamorphosis, which is far from over, has made the area the location of choice for artists.

Affordable housing can still be found in Sud-Ouest, where quality of life is enhanced by various places that everyone should visit, for example, the Atwater market, a haven for foodies in search of delicacies and local produce. 

The Sud-Ouest area boasts a singular urban landscape. With the Lachine Canal running through it, five locks, a view of downtown Montreal, and unique architecture, this borough has managed to hold on to its cachet while embracing modernization.

Sud-Ouest has a pulsating cultural life with some forty public works of art, several libraries and countless organized activities that include musical and comedy shows at the Corona theatre. 

The neighbourhood’s charm is what attracts people to Sud-Ouest, and the large-scale urban projects planned over the next few years are sure to attract many more.
