Angrignon station
from Wikipedia

Angrignon station (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ɡʁiɲɔ̃]) is a Montreal Metro station in Le Sud-Ouest borough of Montreal, Quebec. It is operated by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM) and is the western terminus of the Green Line.[4] The station includes a large bus terminus for buses to southwest Montreal, the West Island (Dorval), and South Western Quebec. It opened in 1978.

Key Information

Architecture

[edit]
Station kiosk

Angrignon station is built with windows encasing the tracks and side platforms, which creates a very light and airy environment. Jean-Louis Beaulieu received an award from the Ordre des architectes du Québec[5] for the design of the station.

The station is equipped with the MétroVision information screens which displays news, commercials, and the time till the next train.

Artwork

[edit]

On the platforms, Les Boîtes vivantes by Shelley Miller is a ceramic photography montage of Parc Angrignon's Quartiers d’hiver. This was the winter residence of animals of the Jardin des merveilles (Garden of Wonders) - a former urban zoo in Parc La Fontaine.[6] The work was installed in 2022 as part of work to make the station accessible.[7]

Station improvements

[edit]

In October 2019, work began to make the station universally accessible with the installation of elevators at a cost of $18m.[8] As part of the project, the glass walls of the station were replaced to improve watertightness. A piece of artwork was also installed. The work was completed on December 9, 2022, making it the 24th accessible station.[7]

Origin of the name

[edit]

Jean-Baptiste Arthur Angrignon was alderman of the district of Saint-Paul and a member of the Executive Committee of the city of Montreal. He oversaw the development of what is now Parc Angrignon on what was land that belonged to the Crawford family. The area was named after him in 1927.
