Montreal Science Centre
The Montreal Science Centre (French: Centre des sciences de Montréal) is a science museum located on the King Edward Quay in Montreal’s Old Port. Established in 2000 as the iSci Centre and renamed in 2002, the museum is managed by the Old Port of Montreal Corporation, a division of the Canada Lands Company, a crown corporation of the Canadian government. It features interactive science and technology exhibits and includes an IMAX theatre.
Originally built as King Edward Wharf between 1901 and 1903 for cargo ships, King Edward Quay saw significant changes as port activities shifted to the new Port of Montreal in the 1970s. By the 1990s, the quay was redeveloped along with the rest of the Old Port area.
