It is a National Historic Site of Canada . Beginning in the 17th century, voyageurs would launch their canoes from this location to transport trade goods thousands of miles into the interior of North America lands. At that time the Lachine Rapids prevented large ships from going any further west along the Saint Lawrence River . A stone warehouse was erected in 1803 to store the furs gathered as a result of fur trade . It is now a Parks Canada museum dedicated to the history of this strategic location as a departure and arrival point for fur trading expeditions.
