Bishop Street (officially rue Bishop) is a north-south street located in downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada. With a total length of 0.6 km, it links Sherbrooke Street in the north to René Lévesque Boulevard in the south. Like neighbouring Crescent Street, Bishop is home to many pubs, bars, clubs and restaurants. The street borders the main downtown campus of Concordia University, including the Henry F. Hall Building, Bishop Court Apartments and the former Royal George Apartments, whose facade is now part of the J.W. McConnell Building. ==History== The origin of the name Bishop Street is uncertain, but is known to be linked to the Anglican community. In 1887, it was named "Bishop Street", perhaps named for the first Anglican bishop of Montreal, Francis Fulford (1803-1868), whose first residence was located on the corner of Dorchester Street (today René Lévesque Boulevard).〔(Commission de toponymie du Québec: Rue Bishop )〕
