The current Town of Lasalle was originally organized as the Township of Sandwich West in 1861 when Sandwich Township was divided into two parts. A portion of the township incorporated as the Town of Lasalle in 1924, but was dissolved in 1959 and rejoined Sandwich West. In 1991, the Township changed its status to that of a town and was renamed Lasalle. It is the second most populous municipality within Essex County, after the Municipality of Lakeshore. The town's land area includes Fighting Island in the Detroit River on its western side. Fighting Island is privately owned by BASF, the world's largest chemical company.
