History

The Station takes its name from the nearby street of Charlevoix. Named after François-Xavier de Charlevoix was a French Jesuit historian and an explorer of New France.

The station was built using a stacked plateform method in order to reduce the width of the station. The Station has one ticket hall and a long staircase leading to the platform. The station is accented by two stained glass windows designed by Mario Merola and Pierre Osterrath.
