This riding was created in 1947 from Mount Royal when that riding moved from being based in Notre-Dame-de-Grâce to the town Mount Royal. In 1980 its name was changed to "Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine East".

It was abolished in 1987 when it was redistributed into Lachine—Lac-Saint-Louis and a new Notre-Dame-de-Grâce riding.

The new Notre-Dame-de-Grâce riding was created from parts of Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine East, Mount Royal and Saint-Henri—Westmount ridings.

This riding consisted of:

  • the towns of Saint-Pierre and Montréal-Ouest;
  • that part of the Town of Montréal bounded as follows: commencing at the intersection of the northeasterly limit of the City of Côte-Saint-Luc and Queen Mary Road; thence, successively, the following lines and demarcations: Queen Mary Road; Circle Road Street to the right; Bridle Path Street; Bonavista Avenue; Côte-Saint-Luc Road; the limits of the Town of Westmount; Autoroute 20; Autoroute 15; the Lachine Canal; the limits of the towns of LaSalle, Montréal, Montréal-Ouest, Montréal, Hampstead; the limits of the city of Côte-Saint-Luc to the point of commencement.

The electoral district was abolished in 1996 when it was merged into Notre-Dame-de-Grâce—Lachine riding.
