I don't know who Eddy Gibbons is, although I am sure he shares my opinion that Gibbons Avenue in Verdun is not a true reflection of this honourable name. Gord Gibbons Brampton, Ontario

GIBBONS AVE.: In honor of Alderman John W. Gibbons, representing Ward no. 1. From Messager centennial issue publication commemorating the 100th anniversary of Verdun, 1876 - 1976. ARCHIVES SHGV
Actually Les, I offered it in jest - guess it didn't work. I believe that Gibbons Avenue is the shortest inhabited street in Verdun - assuming it still exists. Guy, thanks for the history. Th Alderman John Gibbons is of no relation. He may be related to Eddy Gibbons! Gord Gibbons
