ville-marie 895 De la Gauchetière (Gare Centrale) - ?? étages

[yarabundi]

Il me semble avoir déjà lu quelque part que la structure du stationnement étagé avait été construite dès le départ pour supporter un gratte-ciel.

Ce qui serait excellent. Un endroit parfait pour de la densification. Mais peut-on le confirmer?

L'idéal serait quand même de le démolir et de construire une nouvelle tour qui occupe le tiers du site, avec un stationnement dans les premiers étages, et qui dégagerait un parvis/place publique entre la gare et de la Gauchetière. L'accès actuel à la gare est quand même gênant et aucunement digne d'une métropole­. L'aménagement du parvis pourait même s'étendre sur la rue qui deviendrait une rue partagée/débaracadère.

C’est bon de savoir qu’il y aura possiblement une tour, mais ce que ce site a vraiment de besoins est une magnifique entrée à la gare centrale. Le Centre Bell a condamné la Gare Windsor il y a 23 ans, et Montréal est en grande manque d’une Gare de train à la hauteur d’une ville d’envergure.

Notre gare est à la hauteur de nos services de trains.

Where do you see this great entrance? Mansfield? University? both?

Une proposition qui provient de Boston, je pense que ça pourrait être intéressant pour ce projet! Cela ferait une belle équilibre avec la place Bonaventure et son jardin sur son toit.

Stantec Designs Residential Addition to Boston's Dock Square Garage

Finding developable plots of land in Boston's vibrant downtown is becoming rare these days, forcing developers and architects to literally think outside the box in the case of a new proposal by Fortis Property Group and Stantec. The duo have filed plans for a flashy ten-storey residential addition on the roof of the Dock Square parking garage.

While the current parking garage and Hard Rock would be retained, the latter would be reduced in size from 15,000 to 8,000 square feet to accommodate the lobby for the 195-unit residential volume. The number of public parking spaces would also decline from 714 to 698.

The brick-clad garage faces a recladding along its entire perimeter under the scheme. It would be sheathed in terracotta louvers and perforated metal panels, arranged vertically to reduce the visual bulk of the structure, while the spiralling glass extension takes root up top. The garage facade would be embedded with LED light strips for active nighttime illumination.

The proposal in context, image via Stantec

The goal of the facade composition, reads the design strategy submitted to the City, is to "create a warm-coloured building base that fits into the context of the historical neighbourhood, and a contrasting sleek and prism-like top that becomes a recognizable addition to the Boston skyline."

De la Gauchetière St. is the simplest answer, as the Indigo parkade bldg. and the Central Station levsl passenger drop and car rental floor shall be demolished anyways, and then rebuilt in the process of building a tower. This would represent the perfect occasion to create a grandiose entrance at the very level of the station's main floor. (This, as opposed to the horrendous narrow corridor presently offering visitors views over... the parking!)

Plus, Belmont St. is barely wider than a big alley, and would require demolition of either CN's office tower, or the one on the opposite side of the block, so this most certainly won't be considered.

Nifty creative project! I'd love to see any project somewhat inspired by it replacing one the few parking lots south of Place Bonaventure!

But such a small project definitely shall not be built where the Indigo parkade is presently located. We're talking about a location directly connected to the metro, the REM and Central.Station, where the demand will be there sooer of later to build this lot to its max density, and thus rake up max profits.

Though not the simplest solution, I would like to see this grand entrance on RL. It would occupy the eastern portion of the Queen E opposite the PVM plaza and be aligned with the McGill College corridor. This entrance would be a level above the stations main floor while still opening up into the great hall.

In this vision, Gare Centrale could be considered the southern terminus of the McGill College promenade.

'Never going to happen: Queen E. Hotel just went through major renovations, including its "crown". The 18-or-so-floor hotel is built up to Tour Terminal, which is about 30 floors-tall.

Best grand entrance option for both the future tower and Central Station definitely remains de la Gauchetière at the present parkade.

Of course, a revamped secondary entrance on R.-L. would be a big plus for the image of the station, but please keep in mind there are also 2 underground entrances coming from PVM that connect to the station!

Bonjour,

Effectivement, nous avons reçu de l'information privilégiée pour un projet en planification au dessus du stationnement de la gare centrale.

Ce projet sera une tour mixte (condo, bureaux) de plusieurs centaines de millions de dollars.

Sa hauteur égalera son voisin de la 1000 de la Gauchetière.

Tout un scoop pour Montréal!😍😍😍

Pour ceux qui ont plus d'information privilégiée sur ce projet ou tout autre, mais qui ne veulent pas être reliés à la fuite d'information... n'hésitez pas de nous écrire directement en privé pour faire publier ces informations.
