Published: 6 September 2024

Montreal’s long-awaited luxury shopping mall Royalmount officially opened on September 5. The project, which spans 800,000 square feet, and features stores like Gucci, Versace, and Louis Vuitton, aims to attract diverse shoppers from all walks of life with an “inclusive luxury†concept. While excitement is high, concerns exist over traffic and accessibility.

However, he cautions that early visitors might be underwhelmed due to many stores yet to open.
