Date: Undetermined. Publisher / Photographer: Unidentified. Some of the early buildings in Notre Dame. to the far left is the Convent of the order Chanoinesses the Five Wounds of the Savior. I couldn't find any information on the building to the far right, so I contacted the Museum in Notre Dame. I received this very thorough response: "The building on the far right of the picture is the presbytery. Construction started in the spring of 1912 and was blessed by Monseigneur Arthur Béliveau on November 10, 1913. It was built to replace the ageing monastery (which you see to the immediate left on the picture). In March 1950, the religious order of nuns, the Chanoinesses, bought the presbytery and transformed it into a residence for the elderly. In 1959, after a steady increase of occupants over the years, it was decided that the space was too small to accommodate the residents. In 1960, a committee called “Les Amis du Foyer” was formed to determine how best to address these concerns. In 1961, the Chamber of commerce formed a permanent committee, The Fondation Santé Notre Dame (Notre Dame Health Foundation), to oversee the expansion of the residence. In 1961-1962, the chapel and two new wings were added to the presbytery. It still exists today as the Foyer Notre Dame. The administrative offices are located in the old presbytery."
