[edit] Origin of the name

This station is named for boul. Rosemont, the main street of the Rosemont district. This area was developed on an area purchased by land speculators Ucal-Henri Dandurand and Herbert Holt from the Canadian Pacific Railway; it was incorporated as the Village of Rosemont in 1915, named by Dandurand in honour of his mother, née Rose Phillips.
