As part of the upgrade of residential area services in Ville-St.-Laurent that followed the industrial area changes in 1992, route 178 Laurentien was created to provide direct service between Céte-Vertu Métro station, the transit hub for Ville-St.-Laurent, and the industrial area in the north via the residential and commercial communities along Laurentien Boulevard. A later reorganization of services in the area saw the route scaled back to rush hours only, and later merged into route 215 St.-Jean (renamed 215 Henri-Bourassa), which, coincidentally, was also the route that operated this service before the 178 was created. Laurentien Boulevard was later renamed Marcel-Laurin Boulevard in honour of the late long-time mayor of St.-Laurent. 23-101 is posing on Marcel-Laurin Boulevard, south of Thimens.
