The origin of the name Berri, in use since 1818, is still uncertain. The lands in this area, which belonged to Migeon de Branssat in 1669, were called La Gaucheti�re and Berry. It is unknown whether this name refers to the French province by the same name. The Universit� du Québec � Montréal (UQAM) was created by the Government of Quebec in 1968, and was opened in 1969. The campus in this neighbourhood was opened in 1979. The station was renamed Berri-UQAM on 1 January 1988; until that time, it was called Berri-de Montigny Rue de Montigny (now part of boul. de Maisonneuve, except for a small portion near Place des Arts) was named in honour of the Testard de Montigny family. The Universit� du Québec � Montréal (UQAM) was established by the Government of Québec in accordance with the Act respecting the Universit� du Québec adopted on December 18, 1968. The UQAM welcomed its first students in the Fall of 1969. The institution had a rapid growth and inaugurated phase 1 of its new campus in 1979 near the metro station.
