Shade trees at the bottom of the carriage path would resemble a valley. Olmsted had planned to emphasize the mountainous topography through the use of vegetation. The park was originally designed by Frederick Law Olmsted (who also co-designed New York City's Central Park) and was inaugurated in 1876, although not completed to his design. The mountain is the site of Mount Royal Park (French: Parc du Mont-Royal), one of Montreal's largest greenspaces. įor the 1976 Summer Olympics, the park itself hosted the individual road race cycling event. The area was briefly considered as a candidate for the site of Expo 67 before the exposition grounds were ultimately built on adjoining islands in the Saint Lawrence River. It is currently used by the AMT's Deux-Montagnes commuter rail line. In 1914–1918, the Mount Royal Tunnel was dug under the mountain by the Canadian Northern Railway, a predecessor of the Canadian National Railway. Much of this area has since been expropriated by the Université de Montréal. In 1906, a large housing development was started in the area, called Northmount Heights, with homes built along what is now Decelles Street by developer Northmount Land Company. In 1876, land owner and farmer James Swail began planning residential subdivisions on the western slope of Mount Murray, in what is now the Cote-des-Neiges district. In 1643, Paul de Chomedey, Sieur de Maisonneuve made a pilgrimage to the top of the mountain to fulfill a vow made in the winter season on occasion of a great flood that swept up to the town palisades. However, Cartier's 1535 diary entry refers to "le mont Royal." Another argument, mentioned by the Government of Canada on its website concerning Canadian place names, is that the name Montréal was adopted because a Venetian map from 1556 used the Italian name of the mountain, "Monte Real." The name was first applied to the island and was unofficially applied to the city, formerly named Ville-Marie, by the 18th century. One theory is that the name of the Island of Montréal derives from Mont Réal, as the mountain's name was spelled in Middle French ( Mont Royal in Modern French). He wrote in his journal: "And among these fields is situated and seated the said town of Hochelaga, near to and adjoining a mountain. He named it in honour of his patron, Francis I of France. The first European to scale the mountain was Jacques Cartier, guided there in 1535 by the people of the village of Hochelaga.
