Sud-Ouest DistrictCote-Saint-Paul
Only sixty years after the foundation of Ville-Marie, Cote-Saint-Paul, now part of the Sud-Ouest borough, appears on a map of the island of Montreal dated October 1702. In 1800, the territory was a quiet village located between Lachine and Saint-Henri des Tanneries. Fifteen farms were established on both sides of what is now the St-Patrick Street. The Avenue de l’Église commemorates the Église Saint-Paul, a catholic church, and is one of the oldest roads of the territory. Its layout is reproduced on a chart dated 1834. The Avenue de l'Église was then the only link between the actual Saint-Patrick Street and the Lasalle Boulevard. In Verdun the road was once called Pavilion Street, then Church Street, then Avenue de l’Église. Today, the population of Côte-Saint-Paul located between Ville-Émard and Saint-Henri is mainly French, includes a certain number of immigrants - the immigrants living in the Sud-Ouest borough mostly come from China, Italy and France - and is somewhat disadvantaged.
