Public markets and events are held on the wide sidewalks along this stretch of Jean-Talon during the summer. Luckily there is ample space between the building facades and the sidewalk in which local business can host various events and even put up patios throughout the summer without hampering circulation or removing parking. This area was designed perfectly to allow life to be lived out on the street in the wide paved areas in front of the rows of buildings.
