• Notes

  260–270 Dalhousie (1909) Until 1923, this was the fi rst store location for J. Alphonse Larocque who expanded his business into J. A. Larocque Limited, the well-known department store at Rideau and Dalhousie. The J. B. Lefebvre Shoe Store then occupied this building for subsequent decades. 260–270 Dalhousie (1909) Jusqu’en 1923, c’était le premier magasin de J. Alphonse Larocque qui créa la compagnie J. A. Larocque Limité, qui est devenu plus tard un magasin rayon bien connu sur la rue Rideau et la rue Dalhousie. Par la suite, c’est le magasin de chaussures J.B. Lefebvre qui a occupé cet espace durant les prochaines décennies. [9]
