The whole area tends to have names inspired by streets in the vicinity of Mount Royal in Montreal: Côte-des-Neiges, Mont-Royal, Prince-Arthur, Duluth, Outremont, etc. Some of them like Musée are more obscure but they do exist in Montreal close to the mountain.
Some distance from here, there is an area of the Plateau district of Gatineau that has a bunch of streets named for famous museums: Louvre, Beaux-Arts, Art-Moderne, Prado, Pergame, etc.
