The Petit Lac d'Argent Park was located between Décarie boulevard and Dion street. This project, conducted jointly by the Oeuvre des terrains de jeux de Saint-Laurent inc. and the government, was launched in 1938 to alleviate unemployment in the region. The park was also to offer citizens a recreation area that was clean and easy to access. A cottage is then built and converted into a restaurant in 1944. In 1951, the park was acquired by the Hobbs Glass Limited corporation before its closing some time later.
