Laval (Fabreville)

Fabreville is a neighbourhood in the northwest of the city of Laval, Quebec.

It is named in honour of Bishop Édouard-Charles Fabre.

The name of this sector was made official on December 5, 1968.

Fabreville is bounded by the Mille Îles River to the northwest, Sainte-Rose to the northeast, Chomedey to the southeast, Sainte-Dorothée to the south and Laval-Ouest to the southwest.

The municipality of the western part of the parish of Sainte-Rose adopted the name of the city of Fabreville in 1957. In 1960, Fabreville lost part of its territory to the city of Sainte-Rose. The latter absorbed an area located west of the Laurentian Highway, considered its new natural border.

Among the district's attractions, there are several green spaces located along the Mille-Iles River and the Boisé de la Source, a 50-hectare forest located within the district, where you can go walking, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in winter.
