The sandstone buildings along downtown's Stephen Avenue were constructed after a fire in 1886 destroyed much of the neighborhood. Several of those historic buildings fell victim to developers' wrecking balls, but the few that remain are worthy of an afternoon stroll during which you can revel in their architecture. Check out the Old City Hall, the Hudson's Bay Company and the old Bank of Montreal Building, which now houses a vast music store. Along the way you can indulge in the diversions offered by many popular shops and restaurants.
