The Charlebois Hotel, c. 1910

According to the registry, Lot 64 – where 286 Lakeshore is located – has been the site of innkeeping activities since at least the 1880’s. Then operated by Louis Labelle, "innkeeper of the parish", on the property of his wife, Émilie Charlebois, the site was sold to Thomas and Herménégilde Duchesneau in 1886. It was then purchased by Léon Charlebois in 1894; his name is legible on signs hung on the building at the turn of the century. Subsequent deeds indicate the owners to be Ferdinand Lanthier in 1896; Mélanie David, wife of William Rickner, in 1900; and Wilfrid and Napoléon Schetagne in 1901. In 1904, Napoléon sold his share to Wilfrid and waived his "right to operate a hotel... within the limits of the village of Pointe Claire". In 1907, Wilfrid sold it to Edmond Malette with "all the furnishings of the hotel". In 1925, Sylva Malette sold to Willie Bougie, innkeeper of Lachine, who in turn sold it to Léo Chénier in 1926. The hotel was henceforth called Chénier, and kept this name until the building was sold in 1947 to new proprietors, Albert Brisebois and Gustave Paquin. When Brisebois bought his partner's share ten years later, the hotel was named the Pointe-Claire Hotel. Since the 1970’s it has been operated mainly as a bar and restaurant.
