Mount Royal Avenue (officially in French: avenue du Mont-Royal), once named Tannery Road (French: chemin des Tanneries), is a street in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The main part of the street transects the borough of Le Plateau-Mont-Royal, from Park Avenue at the foot of Mount Royal, for which the road is named, to Frontenac St. Another section in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie runs from Molson St. to Pie-IX Boulevard. West of Park Avenue, the road continues into Outremont (where it becomes Mount Royal Boulevard), skirting the northern rim of the mountain to a terminus at Vincent d'Indy Avenue near the Édouard-Montpetit metro station.
The western section of the avenue is the principal artery of the Plateau,[1][2] forming the southern border of the Mile End neighbourhood. Notable businesses on the street include the restaurants La Binerie Mont-Royal[3] and Beauty's.[4]
The Mont-Royal metro station is located at the corner of Mount Royal Ave. and Rivard St., at Place Gérald-Godin.
