Mercier–Hochelaga-Maisonneuve, Administrative borough in Montreal, Canada

This eastern sector of Montreal spans 25.4 square kilometers and contains residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, and numerous parks along the Saint Lawrence River.

The area emerged from the merger of three distinct communities: Hochelaga village founded in 1870, Maisonneuve established by industrialists, and Mercier formed through older settlements.

The district maintains several public spaces including the Olympic Stadium, Montreal Biodome, Saputo Stadium, and Maisonneuve Market, which shape local community activities.

The borough council meets at 6854 Rue Sherbrooke Est to discuss urban planning, permits, and community matters with residents during monthly public sessions.

Manufacturing facilities in this district employed many workers in shoe production, textiles, and food industries before transitioning to modern economic activities.
