Griffintown

Historic industrial neighborhood transformed into a trendy urban district with chic condos, boutiques, art galleries, and a vibrant nightlife.

Tips from the community

Bordered by the Lachine Canal, Griffintown is a previously industrialized zone that has been revitalized into a creative oasis. One of the trendiest spots in Montréal, Griffintown consists of converted warehouses, modern condo developments, modish restaurants, and a thriving art scene. Encounter an authentic Griffintown vibe at Perles et Paddock, a renovated garage turned ultra-chic restaurant with tasty bites of French cuisine and specialized cocktails. Enjoy the picturesque trails along the Lachine Canal, a top Montréal picnic destination, or spend the day gallery hopping between hip, local spots such as the Bradley Ertaskiran gallery or the Arsenal Contemporary Artspace. Griffintown is a great place to stay for any travelers seeking a chic, artsy getaway in Montréal reminiscent of Chelsea in Manhattan.
