What is "lasalle"

LaSalle was a brand of automobiles manufactured and marketed by General Motors' Cadillac division from 1927 through 1940. Alfred P. Sloan developed the concept for LaSalle and certain other General Motors' marques in order to fill pricing gaps he perceived in the General Motors product portfolio. Sloan created LaSalle as a companion marque for Cadillac. LaSalle automobiles were manufactured by Cadillac, but were priced lower than Cadillac-branded automobiles and were marketed as the second-most prestigious marque in the General Motors portfolio.

Like Cadillac, the LaSalle brand name was based on that of a French explorer, René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle.

LaSalle is a station on the Green Line of the Montreal Metro rapid transit system operated by the Société de transport de Montréal (STM). It is located in the borough of Verdun, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. The station opened on September 3, 1978, as part of the extension of the Green Line westward to Angrignon.

Lasalle (also known as Lasalle—Émard—Côte Saint-Paul) was a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1968 to 1988.

This riding was created in 1966 from parts of Jacques-Cartier—Lasalle and Saint-Henri ridings.

It consisted of the City of LaSalle and a part of the City of Montreal bordering on that city.

The name of the electoral district was changed in 1973 to "Lasalle—Émard—Côte Saint-Paul".

The electoral district was abolished in 1976 whjen it was redistributed into a new Lasalle riding, and Verdun and Westmount ridings.

The electoral district was abolished in 1987 when it was merged into LaSalle—Émard riding.

LaSalle Station is a Buffalo Metro Rail underground station located at the corner of Main Street and LaSalle Avenue and is one stop from the northern terminus. Original drafting plans had the station used as a turnout between the current Metro Rail line and three proposed extensions; the Tonawanda Line, which would extend service into the cities of Tonawanda and Niagara Falls; the North Buffalo Line, which would extend service to Elmwood Avenue on an abandoned railroad right-of-way between Hertel and Kenmore Avenues; and the East Buffalo line, to connect the Main Street line with the proposed Airport Line, carrying passengers to the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport. The only visible sign of the turnout is located below ground by way of partially finished tunnel just west of the LaSalle Station platforms. From May 20, 1985 to November 10, 1986, due to construction issues at LaSalle Station, Amherst Street Station served as the northern terminus. Since November 10, 1986, University Station serves as the northern terminus.
