An alley is a narrow lane or passageway for pedestrian’s or delivery/pickups that evolved within urban neighbourhoods. They also came about as spacing between buidlings as they were built, whether designed to or not.
Montreal has many, many alleys. There is now a movement for “green alleys” (Ruelle verte) in this city.
Walking down an alley can be fun, reminiscing those childhood memories of exploring or playing in a neighbourhood alley with friends. Montreal is a safe city, but, nonetheless, it’s wise not to walk down any alley by yourself in the dark. Best to go with a friend or two, in daylight and enjoy the experience.
