Buildings and Characteristics
The site comprises some 7 properties, mostly on the northern side of Marie-Victorin Road (French: Route Marie-Victorin; Quebec Route 132), with one on the merging Pioneers Street (French: rue des Pionniers), and is located just West of the original village core of Saint-Nicolas (Saint-Nicolas was merged to Lévis in 2002). Only the Notre-Dame-de-Grâce Hermitage and Chapel are located on the southern side of the road. An eight building, a 1948 bungalow mimicking traditional architecture is located within the site but is of little historical or architectural significance.

Famous quotes containing the word buildings:
“Now, since our condition accommodates things to itself, and transforms them according to itself, we no longer know things in their reality; for nothing comes to us that is not altered and falsified by our Senses. When the compass, the square, and the rule are untrue, all the calculations drawn from them, all the buildings erected by their measure, are of necessity also defective and out of plumb. The uncertainty of our senses renders uncertain everything that they produce.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
