    GDP by Province
  2. jesseps
    One thing that is interesting, Quebec does have the potential to become a petroleum supplier, all because of that island in the Gulf of the St Lawrence. Seeing under that island there is a nice 30 billion barrels sitting there. Which is about 1/6th of what Alberta has, but also similar to the amount Kazakhstan has in its own reserves. If this province can finally get going in the right direction, and make up for the many decades of loss productivity and population growth. We have a chance to becoming maybe the wealthiest province once again and have the largest population. It is just hard to forecast 10-40 years into the future. Between 2005 and 2010, Ontario GDP was up almost 14%. Quebec was up 17% and Alberta was up almost 20%. I just found a press release from last year. Quebec is hoping by 2020, that there will be about 1.2 million electric vehicles on the road in this province. Which would save 1.5 billion litres of petroleum, it doesn't specify if that is yearly though. What is interesting, the three countries that get much of its electricity from hydro is; China, Brazil and Canada. Actually we can a forth one; Russia.

    So they finally decided what they are doing with that spot, good for them.

    The multi-floor addition looks really nice. I heard that the Lakeshore in Pointe-Claire might be getting a new ER.

    I hope not, seeing I am not sure where we would be able to put them. Who knows by 2050 we might have to have another one built, seeing the Greater Montreal area might have like almost 7 million inhabitants, while the island has about 2.5 million. While will pale in comparison to many of the other cities in North America.

    So that be another first for Montreal.

    I guess you are right. I was about to write something, but I stopped myself, seeing what I was going to say would have no value.
  8. jesseps
    What is interesting, for the past few years I have been looking at home resale values across the city and there has been a steady increase of multi-million dollar properties. Plus there now a small amount of $10+ million dollar properties for sale.

    Square Victoria sometime in the mid-late 1870s. Pictures taken from http://retrofutur-montreal.blogspot.ca/2010/04/square-victoria.html

    The amount of projects that have been proposed and approved for the next 13-15 years is quite crazy. I don't think we will see that again in our life time. I am talking about all the infrastructure changes, super hospitals and all the new residential towers / commercial towers going up. It is almost like our very own Dubai or booming Chinese city, that actually has people living there. Hopefully this growth will be steady and not cause a bubble in the real estate market. If I remember correctly, just in the past 10 years or so, the Montreal real estate market in value, went up 100%. One thing is for sure, it will be interesting to see what the population will be like in the next 13-15 years, for the island of Montreal and the Greater Montreal region.

    Now for some building / apartment complex owners to do the same thing.

    I can't wait to see, which building in the city is already organic in design.
  14. jesseps
    What is interesting, that tower that we were hoping to have built near La Baie, is still in the video, even thought it was axed.

    Boul. de la Vérendrye Canal

    jesseps a répondu à un sujet de jesseps dans Visions

    I finally read up on why they can't do it with the Lachine Canal, what a shame. I wouldn't mind chipping in some money, to an organization willing to make sure the Canal would be suited for winter skating.

    It is going to be even more stunning, when the Bonaventure completed and all those buildings that are "supposed" to be built. It would be a micro-NYC.
  17. jesseps
    I can't wait for the facelift on part of Cresent. I am surprised Wanda's survived the mayhem and not Thursday's. I bet people will be happy that Sir Winston will still be around
  18. jesseps
    What is interesting, the building I work in currently, the city / government trying to expropriate the owner seeing it is located near the Outremont site and they need the land for some reason. I just noticed in one of the renderings, some of the buildings have grass on them? Plus some of them seem to have solar panels. [update]: Now I see why the government / city wants the building, it is right across the street from the metro. Just sucks for the people in the area, there is a gas station right and the other one is on Parc and Jean Talon.

    The next one should be called RocVoisine

    Now that be a first for Montreal, a quite organic building design wise. It would be interesting to see here, just not sure how it would fit in with the other buildings. How many other buildings across the globe have a similar design, a few 100?
  23. jesseps
    So half of Cresent would get a facelift?
  24. jesseps
    CJAD This might be interesting, but not really about it. Thing is aren't the cable cars in NY, usually down for most of the year though?

    CJAD This should be an interesting case to watch. We know that we are being screwed.
