- Scope & content
- Interpretation panel at 4600-4602, boulevard Saint-Laurent, from the series « La Main, toujours de son temps – Mile End / The Main, Forever in Tune – Mile End » installed by Les Amis du boulevard Saint-Laurent in 2011. Au début du 20 e siècle, le lot aujourd’hui occupé par le 4600-4602 Saint-Laurent, propriété du bourgeois Joseph Martel, alors conseiller de la Ville de Saint-Louis, abrite un petit bâtiment en arrière-cour . En 1912-13, l’entrepreneur en plomberie, toitures et ferblanterie Napoléon Turcot , un ancien maire de Saint-Louis qui est alors le conseiller municipal du quartier Laurier, achète la propriété. Il y érige un immeuble industriel de trois étages qui occupe 100 % du lot et offre des espaces de travail avec de hauts plafonds et de grandes fenêtres . La façade, avec ses panneaux et sa corniche en métal, montre les dernières tendances en ferblanterie . Bien que le bourgeois Azarie Boucher achète la propriété en 1914, l’entreprise de Turcot occupe l’immeuble entre 1913 et 1917. Par la suite, le manufacturier de vêtements féminins Pageau Manufacturing Company et le manufacturier de pantalons T. Beauregard & Company s’installent aux étages. Entre 1920 et 1924, le rez-de-chaussée abrite la Starr Phonograph Company of Quebec, vendeur de phonographes et de disques fabriqués par sa compagnie mère en Indiana. En 1925, l’immeuble est acheté par la Canadian Upholstery Company, qui fabrique et vend ses meubles rembourrés au rez-de-chaussée et qui loue les étages à des manufacturiers de vêtements, notamment Kit Kat Knit Ltd. et J.K. Knitting Mills. En 1972, la propriété est acquise par le Centro Gallego de Montréal, un organisme social et culturel fondé en 1970 par des membres de la communauté galicienne. Depuis, un club social offrant de la cuisine galicienne occupe le 2 e étage et des activités culturelles ont lieu ponctuellement au 3 e étage. In the early 20 th century, the site now occupied by 4600-4602 Saint-Laurent was owned by Joseph Martel, gentleman and councillor of the Town of Saint Louis. It housed a small building at the rear of the lot . In 1912-13, roofer, tinsmith and plumbing contractor Napoléon Turcot , a former mayor of Saint Louis who was then the municipal councillor of Laurier Ward, bought the property. He constructed a three-storey industrial building that occupied the entire lot and offered work spaces with high ceilings and large windows . Its façade featured metal panels and a cornice that demonstated the latest trends in tinsmithing . Although the property was sold to gentleman Azarie Boucher in 1914, Turcot’s business was the sole occupant between 1913 and 1917. The Pageau Manufacturing Company, which made women’s apparel, and T. Beauregard & Company, a pants manufacturer, moved into the upper levels. Between 1920 et 1924, the ground floor was the home of Starr Phonograph Company of Quebec, which sold phonographs and vinyl records made by its parent company in Indiana. In 1925, the property was acquired by the Canadian Upholstery Company, which fabricated and sold upholstered furniture on the ground floor and rented the upper floors to clothing manufacturers, such as Kit Kat Knit Ltd. and J.K. Knitting Mills. In 1972, the property was acquired by the Centro Gallego de Montréal , a social and cultural organization founded in 1970 by members of the Galician community. Since then, a social club offering Galician cuisine has occupied the 2 nd floor, and the 3 rd floor has served as a venue for cultural activities.
