Turning what was a run-down and car-centered stretch of a storied Montréal street, Sainte-Catherine Street West was transformed into a pedestrian hub that celebrates its history as the city’s main commercial drag. By transforming a four-lane road into a pedestrian-oriented one with a single lane of car traffic, the redesign creates a promenade stretching six blocks where cars, cyclists, and pedestrians share the road. Phillips Square is expanded, making a new, green public hub for the city whose ambition is to transform Montréal into the greenest city center in North America.
