The Plateau is the part of Montréal east of Mount Royal where people live in walk-ups with outdoor spiral staircases and shop on the same few streets. Boulevard Saint-Laurent splits it into east and west, Avenue du Mont-Royal is its shopping street, and Parc La Fontaine is its big lawn. Most of it can be done on foot in a day.
