June 6, 2019 by Steve MirskyLeave a Comment

The name of Montreal's Golden Square Mile or Le Mille Carré, a square mile of signature historic blocks at the heart of downtown at the foot of Mount Royal, traces its origins back to 1950s real estate developers promoting the area's prosperity.

I discovered a colorful, romantic city where Latin music and dancing greeted me … [Read more...]
