Pointe-Claire, Suburban municipality on the Island of Montreal, Canada

Located on the shores of Lake Saint-Louis, Pointe-Claire extends across residential areas, manufacturing zones, and retail districts within the Greater Montreal region.

The settlement began in 1698 under Sulpician leadership, with the first descriptions of the area documented by Nicolas Perrot in 1669.

The city maintains multiple educational facilities, including both English and French schools, reflecting the bilingual nature of the Montreal metropolitan area.

The territory connects to downtown Montreal through major transportation routes, including Autoroute 20, Autoroute 40, and the Vaudreuil-Hudson railway line.

Terra-Cotta Natural Park spans 39 hectares with six kilometers of paths on land previously used for clay extraction by Montreal Terra Cotta Company.
