In the Maisonneuve familly I want..

The Market!

A few steps away from home is the Maisonneuve Market, a place where you can find fresh products. The Market size has nothing to do with Jean-Talon Market or Atwater market, but, you can find everything: fruits, vegetables, bakery (Ok, it,s Première Moisson!), Cheeses, meats, flowers, canned … Prices for cheese, for here, are not that bad, The Camember is still $ 8 but we can find pieces of Swiss cheese, Emmentaler for $ 4. Fruits and vegetables look really beautiful and not more expensive than the greengrocer on the corner with almost as much variety.

It’s worth it for small shopping, but it is on the turn-off quickly.

The Park!

A large green space in the center of the island. We had already done a tour some time ago but it is so nice. FYI, the park is located near the Olympic stadium between Pie-IX and Viau. There is a bike path and a walking trail, ideal for all kinds of activities. We enjoyed the good time to throw some balls baseball,  so relaxing!
