History

edit

The station is located at 9670 Gouin Blvd. West, in Pierrefonds, Quebec.[1]

The station takes its name from the nearby Boulevard Sunnybrooke, which crosses the railroad at the exit of the station.

From the opening of the Deux-Montagnes Line in 1918 until the modernization of the line, which took place between 1993 and 1995, the area was served by a nearby station called A-ma-Baie,[5] located by Alexander Blvd; near Gouin Blvd. and buses.
