From 1997 to 1999, major rehabilitation work restored hangars 7, 8, 9 and 10 on King Edward Pier and paved the way for the inauguration of the Montréal Science Centre on May 1st, 2000. Today, welcoming 600,000 visitors annually, it is one of the largest science centres in Canada and a beacon of scientific literacy, and the steel frames of the old hangars are still visible.
