Buying in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve
Promenade Ontario, the Maisonneuve Market and the green line: Hochelaga-Maisonneuve is one of eastern Montreal’s most dynamic neighbourhoods.
The local market
Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, often called HOMA, stretches south of the Olympic Park. Promenade Ontario, the Maisonneuve Market, its heritage buildings and many cafés and restaurants make it a neighbourhood in full transformation, popular with first-time buyers.
The neighbourhood is mostly older plexes, many converted into condos, and recent condos. Prices remain more accessible than in central neighbourhoods, which attracts families and investors.
