- Faubourg_à_m'lasse abstract "Le Faubourg à m'lasse was one of Montreal's oldest neighborhoods. The neighborhood's perimeters were René-Lévesque Boulevard to the north, Wolfe Street to the west, Viger Avenue to the south, and Papineau Avenue to the east.It was originally named le Faubourg à Québec because it sat along the route to Québec city. In the neighborhood's later life, it received the nickname it is most commonly associated with today. There are many myths and legends attributed to the neighborhood's nickname and people acknowledge that some of them are quite farfetched but stick with them because those were the tales they grew up believing. One of the legends goes that in the warmer months, when the port saw shipments from far and exotic places, women would anticipate the shipments of molasses. When they knew of an upcoming shipment, they would go to the docks and bring a small container with them. Apparently, there was this unspoken understanding between the crane operator and the women. The crane operator would "accidentally" drop the last barrel of molasses and the women would quickly fill their containers with the fallen substance. In reality, the neighborhood most likely received its nickname from the sweet smell that came from massive metal barrels containing molasses located near the Molson Brewery and Canadian Rubber plant.".
