It was inaugurated on January 4, 1982; it briefly served as the western terminus of the orange line, taking over from Snowdon station, until the opening of Plamondon in June of the same year.

Origin of the name
This station is named for the chemin de la Côte-Sainte-Catherine, the main street of the former village (later city, now borough) of Outremont, which had been called Côte Sainte-Catherine since the 17th century. The station, road, and côte were all named for Saint Catherine of Alexandria.
