NEW: 1km of Montreal’s Ste-Catherine Street will become permanently β€œpedestrian only” (less than perfect term since it will be a people-place for a LOT more than walking). 225+ new trees, vegetation-covered pits for rain drainage, more seating, illuminated canopy, financial help for businesses, etc.
