When I have a little shopping urge, I almost always go to Sainte-Catherine Street.

Every summer, this section of Sainte Catherine Street is topped by a large installation. From 2017 to 2019, thousands of balls forming a huge rainbow (in the colors of the gay flag) were installed. It looks very cute both from the street and from the walkway located at Papineau station. To see the gay flag formed by the balls from above, you can also go to the Jacques Cartier Bridge.

When you have a small shopping impulse, head to Eaton Centre and Place Trust, which are two shopping malls on the street.
