NDG sits west of Mount Royal, known for its quiet tree-lined streets, early 20th-century homes, and strong community feel. Originally a streetcar suburb, it still features stone duplexes, wide avenues, and deep porches.

Anchored by Monkland and Sherbrooke, the area is walkable and vibrant, with cafés, restaurants, and shops that serve the daily needs of locals. Housing ranges from historic family homes to condos, with many interiors renovated for modern living.

The east end, near Westmount and Vendôme, is denser and transit-rich. The west, near Loyola Campus, offers larger lots and a more suburban layout.

NDG is well connected—Vendôme and Villa-Maria Metro stations, major bus lines, and Décarie provide direct access downtown and beyond. Families are drawn to its mix of English and French schools, parks, libraries, and community centres.

It’s a neighbourhood where people plant roots and stay.
