Meadowbrook: Supreme Court refuses to hear case
Last year the city won a Superior Court appeal against the developer who claimed a right to the Lachine part of Meadowbrook Golf Course. This week, Canada’s Supreme Court refused to hear the developer’s appeal.
Part of Meadowbrook is in Côte St-Luc, and on Google aerial view the whole thing is still scooped out for a golf course, although I have no idea whether it’s still used for that purpose. That kind of damage lasts a long time: a lot of Maisonneuve Park still looks like a golf course from above, although it hasn’t been used for that purpose in decades.

Maisonneuve Park still looks like a golf course because the city hasn’t really put any effort into making it not feel like one. A few strategically planted trees and a decade or two would completely change the feel/look of it.

It still operates as a golf course, there’s also a driving range. In the winter locals use it as a clandestine cross country ski / dog walking venue.

I don’t know what a driving range even is.

A driving range is the fun part of golf: Smack the balls as hard as you can & see how far they go 😉
