Plateau loses last McDonald’s
It seems to be of note this week that the last McDonald’s in the Plateau has closed up shop. The tone taken by Eater is a little less sad than the Journal’s and they also a) credit a different, unrelated site with the initial news (something the Journal doesn’t do) and b) ponder the closures of other fast-food joints in the area.

Interesting, that McD was always pretty sketchy so I kind of wondered why it was holding on so long.

Ian, sketchier than the one at Papineau and St-Catherine, where they have/had (since I haven’t been a YEARS) black lights in the bathroom to prevent people from shooting up?

A lot of places have had those bathroom black lights, Ephraim, including the Plateau library across from Mont-Royal metro.

Papineau and ste catherine McDonalds is a site I’ll never forget. Blood leaking out of a guy’s arm while he’s asking for money. I ran out so fast.
