Côte-des-Neiges Road (officially in Template:Lang-fr) is a street in Montreal, home to Plaza Côte-des-Neiges. It is served by Métro Côte-des-Neiges and two bus lanes. BIXI bike rental is also available. It extends from the intersection of Sherbrooke Street and Guy Street in the south to Jean-Talon Street and Laird Boulevard in the north, at the border with the Town of Mount Royal. Part of it follows the path of the former Raimbault Creek (now an underground collector sewer) between the main peak of Mount Royal and Westmount Summit.[1]
It is the economic and cultural heart of the Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood. Côte-des-Neiges Road features a variety of culturally diverse cuisine in its many restaurants; Québécois/Canadian, British, French, Chinese, Lebanese, Vietnamese and Italian alongside many of the popular fast food franchises. Supermarkets and a farmer market also offer victuals to the local residents. Libraries and a school are also present.
The proximity of the Université de Montréal generates a large student population in the neighborhood alongside the ethnically diverse population.
Notable addresses as it passes over Mount Royal include the Notre Dame des Neiges Cemetery and Îlot-Trafalgar-Gleneagles historic block.[2]
