Rosemont is a station on the Orange Line of the Montreal Metro in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is located in the borough of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie. It was inaugurated on October 14, 1966, as part of the original network of the metro.
The metro station, designed by Duplessis, Labelle et Derome, is a normal side-platform station, built in tunnel. It has a ticket barrier at transept level leading to a single entrance adjacent to a bus loop and a municipal parking lot.
[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.
