Gestion Plaza Cote-Des-Neiges

Plaza Cote des Neiges opened on October 3, 1968 after years of promises going back as far back as 1957 and probably even earlier than that. I remember the long-standing wooden fence along Cote des Neiges Road upon which was scrawled "Future Shopping Center" or something similar with the open field behind it. Original plans were to include high-rise apartments in the rear where today's outdoor parking lot exists. Thankfully the high-rises were never built, possibly due to predictions of the inevitable increased road traffic in the neighbourhood, particularly with regards to the nearby Northmount High School (since renamed Ecole Secondaire La Voie). See the Gazette of October 3, 1968, pages 33 through 36. https://news.google.ca/newspapers?nid=Fr8DH2VBP9sC&dat=19681003&printsec=frontpage&hl=en Not sure if the plaza's current management plans a 50th anniversary celebration or if they are even aware of the aforementioned facts.
