context_page_description: Guy–Concordia station is a Montreal Metro station in the borough of Ville-Marie in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is operated by the Société de transport de Montréal and serves the Green Line. The station opened on October 14, 1966, as part of the original network of the Metro. It has consistently been one of the network's busiest stations, ranking 5th in 2000, 2001, 4th from 2002 to 2007, and 3rd since 2008.
context_section_description: The station was originally called Guy after the street where it is located: Guy Street, which, in turn, takes its name from Étienne Guy who represented Montreal in the Legislative Assembly of Lower Canada and was the owned of the land through which the street runs.
  On January 1, 1988, it was renamed Guy–Concordia to reflect the fact that it serves the Sir George Williams campus of Concordia University.
  (Note that in French the name Guy is pronounced to rhyme with bee, whereas in English the name is usually pronounced to rhyme with high. The station is still sometimes referred to simply as Guy.)
