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.
