History

The site was formerly marshland adjacent to the St. Lawrence River. It was used as a landfill and dumpsite from 1866 until 1966, and then was paved to serve as a parking lot for Expo 67 and was named Autoparc Victoria. Following the Expo, it briefly served as the site of the Victoria STOLport, or adaport in French.
