Rue Laurier (Gatineau)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rue Laurier is a main street located in the heart of the City of Gatineau, Quebec. It starts at Rue Eddy and ends at Rue Dussault.

The street's main feature includes the Canadian Museum of Civilization, one of Gatineau's main tourist attractions. It is also the location of Gatineau City Hall connected by an overpass to the Four Points Hotel as well as the Gatineau Court House, the Ramada and Best Western hotels, the Saint-Joseph private college (although a secondary school) for girls and many office buildings of Place du Portage. The Scott tissue paper mill located in front of City Hall is an historic landmark and the city had adopted future plans which will create green spaces when the mill will shut down in an unknown date. It was also the site of the Domtar mill which ceased all Gatineau and Ottawa operations in 2006-07 as part of major restructuration plans for the wood pulp and forest industries.

One of the region's oldest restaurants, Cafe Henry Burger, which was here since 1922 shut down its' doors in 2006.

Right beside the museum, is Jacques Cartier Park which houses many important events such as Winterlude, the Canadian Tulip Festival and Canada Day festivities. The park also contains a marina and bike paths.

This street connects three of the five inter-provincial bridges heading to Ottawa: the Alexandra Bridge, the Chaudière Bridge and the Portage Bridge, while it crosses over the Macdonald-Cartier Bridge (Autoroute 5).

The route was part of Route 148 that was travelling via downtown Hull prior to the construction of the Aylmer by-pass Boulevard des Allumettières (formerly called Boulevard de l'Outaouais and Boulevard Saint-Laurent).
