  1. Tous de bons points et je suis d'accord avec la plupart. Mais vous connaissez les montréalais autant que moi, vont-ils prendre un tram par dessus le bus?
  2. Natif de Verdun, j'ai grandi avec les Canadiens Junior (avec un certain Pat Lafontaine) de Verdun, Ensuite Le Junior de Verdun après Le college Français (Brashear et plusieurs autres. Verdun à toujours eu une bonne foules avec les environs de Lasalle, la Pointe, lachine. Les équipes ont jamais déménagé par manque de foules, les équipes junior ont un grand roulement de ville et bouge rapidement. Sauf certain intouchables. J'espère que ça va marcher, c'est certain que je vais y aller, c'est beaucoup mieux qu'un match d'hockey Senior (je ne connais pas le nouveau nom de la ligue)
  3. Wow that's a surprise this morning, didn't even know they were thinking of bringing a a baseball team here, but seriously, are down to the level of a AA team? we havea class A hockey team, a class B football team (CFL seriously!) and a class B Soccer team, do we need to go with a lower level baseball team really? Bring a farm team here, that would be at least the minimum. But it's still a good news. Why not renovate some existing stadium like the 2000 place Verdun stadium ?
  4. C'est un projet artistique et non urbaniste, mais quand même intéressant si vous aimez le genre. Sources: Créativité Montréal Avec l'exposition "16 beautés étranges: l'architecture de Montréal en 2108", la galerie d'architecture Monopoli propose une installation prospective et futuriste destinée à susciter le questionnement du grand public. Les organisateurs, Sophie Gironnay (directrice de Monopoli) et Jean-Pierre Chupin (professeur agrégé de l'École d'architecture de l'Université de Montréal et responsable de l'atelier Oupropo), ont demandé à 16 futurs architectes de réaliser des maquettes, objets, images et textes pour constituer des "instantanés touristiques", sorte de visite de Montréal en 2108. Issus de l'atelier Oupropo (OUvroir de PROjets POtentiels) de la Maîtrise en architecture de l'Université de Montréal, les étudiants ont imaginé des réponses architecturales à la densification inévitable de la ville, aux problèmes de pollution, à l'impact des nouvelles technologies ainsi qu'aux questions humaines et sociales. Monopoli, Galerie d'architecture 181 St-Antoine Ouest (514) 868-6691 Exposition: du 25 janvier au 8 mars 2008 Vernissage: jeudi 24 janvier à 18h30
  5. La question me brule, Qu,est ce que le tram peut apporter de plus que le Bus?
  6. Est-ce que les 3 petites maisons en bois qu'ils devait garder la facade est dans ce projet?
  7. L'édifice en 1910 prise par guil3433, un photographe à suivre sur Flickr.
  8. Une question d'un gars qui connais pas ça. Mais j'entend dans les média comme quoi Québec est à l'aviation ce que l'automobile est à l'ontario. Est-ce vrai et quel chiffres peuvent me le prouver ?
  9. Je vais devoir dire que j'aime le design, J'aime bien l'entré sous le building de la Gazette. On dirait qu'il manque de cohérence entre les trois portions (La gazette, la tour et les étages ajoutés) mais je ne sais pas pourquoi, ça marche!
  10. J'ai lu ce projet dans le JdM de ce matin et ça semblait correct, pas plus que ça, ça ressemble à un "testons le marché en publiant nos plans dans le journal" je ne sais pas à quel point ils sont sérieux jusqu'à maintenant.
  11. Le journaliste ne dit pas grand choses de plus, mais au moins ils en parlent. New act for old Seville? Boarded-up landmark is undergoing work to reinforce its facade, suggesting the owners might be preparing to sell Andy Riga The Gazette Thursday, January 17, 2008 Passersby got a peek yesterday at the long-shuttered box office of the Seville Theatre on St. Catherine St. W., but it's unclear whether the landmark building is about to be resurrected. In an effort to reinforce the former theatre's facade, which is protected by a heritage designation, workers removed wood panels that for years have covered the building at street level. Steel beams and chain-link fencing were installed to support the Ste. Catherine-side wall, as well as a section on Chomedey St., where part of the wall collapsed in 1994. The owners of the building informed the city the work was to be done but they have not submitted plans to redevelop the land, said Jacques-Alain Lavallée, a spokesperson for the Ville Marie borough. The current work is not being performed at the city's request. "The owners' engineers recommended it," Lavallée said. Officials at Claridge Properties Ltd., which bought the theatre and the rest of the block between Chomedey and Lambert Closse Sts. in 2002 for $10 million, did not return calls from The Gazette yesterday. Claridge - an investment company controlled by Montreal's Bronfman family - initially planned to create an environmentally friendly, mixed-use complex featuring retail space, offices, apartments and condominiums. That plan fell through. The entire block (on the north side of Ste. Catherine) has been abandoned since October, when the last tenant, the Bombay Palace restaurant, moved out. The wall-reinforcement work may be a sign Claridge is ready to sell, said Roger Peace, president of the Shaughnessy Village Association, which represents neighbourhood residents. "We understand they're trying to fix it up and clean it up to make it easier to sell," he said. Peace said some residents are concerned about safety because the decrepit block and the alley behind it attract squatters, drug users and panhandlers drinking alcohol. "They may be harmless but some people are nervous about what might happen. If the block was fixed up, it would clean up a lot of the problems we're having," he said. "It's ridiculous - it's been 14 years since it started falling down. I'm all for heritage and all for saving the place, but there's nothing much left." The Seville was gutted in 1998, part of the previous owner's never-completed plan to build retail and office space. Opened in 1929, the Seville's interior was designed in the "atmospheric style" meant to stimulate a fantasy outdoor setting, the walls and ceiling painted to look like a nighttime scene. None of that interior remains. In the years before the Seville closed in 1985, it was a live-theatre venue, a concert hall, a movie theatre and a repertory cinema. Entertainers who performed there include Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole and Louis Armstrong.
  12. Du Variety, le Journal sur les médias http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117979167.html?categoryid=13&cs=1 Quebec takes a stake in Alliance Government purchases 38.5% of Canadian distributor The Quebec government is making another major investment in the movies. Its investment arm, the Societe General de Financement du Quebec, has paid C$100 million ($98 million) to take 51% of the voting shares and a 38.5% ownership stake in Alliance Films, Canada's leading film distributor. The SGF acquired the stake in Alliance from EdgeStone Capital, a Toronto-based equity firm that had only controlled the film distributor since last summer. The deal is unlikely to spark senior management changes, but Alliance Films' head office will move from Toronto to Montreal. Victor Loewy will remain chairman, and Charles Layton stays on as president. SGF executives said the investment is designed to boost Montreal's film business. "One of the reasons we're investing is because it's a profitable investment," said SGF veepee Christian Lessard. "But it's also an investment that will have a positive effect on the Quebec economy. It will bring more major film players to Montreal." This is only the latest sign that the SGF is taking an active interest in film. Last year, it invested $137 million in a $400 million package of films being produced by Lionsgate. Fifteen of the pics are set to be lensed in the province of Quebec over the next four years. In 2006, the SGF also invested $18 million in a $264 million package of films produced by Joel Silver's Dark Castle, with six of those films to be shot in Quebec. Alliance Films was formerly Motion Picture Distribution, an income trust controlled by Alliance Atlantis Communications. EdgeStone and Goldman Sachs took over the company after the rest of Alliance Atlantis was bought by CanWest Global last year.
  13. That is good news, hope more follows like it happened with video Game companies.
  14. Je viens de passer par la. Selon Héritage MOntréal, l'édifice ne vaut pas grand chose mais la facade doit être sauvegardé. Je ne m'y connais pas dans la construction, mais ça ressemble à une façon de retenir la facade. Corrigé moi si j'ai tort svp.
  15. The Mountain Co would be a great idea. I know I have read on the board they want to open a new store downtown, did they release an address? Théatre Séville needs to be saved, although it's been strip inside by a stupid owner, the building like so many great theatre in MTL need to be seen, not behind boards HOPEFULLY they are doing work for renovations and not because it's crumbling apart.
  16. vous allez aimer celle la; souce: http://www.radio-canada.ca/regions/montreal/version_imprimable.asp?nv=/regions/Montreal/2008/01/14/005-prison-bordeaux-projet.xml Le projet d'agrandissement de l'Établissement de détention de Montréal, communément appelé la prison de Bordeaux, devra attendre. C'est qu'un nombre suffisant de citoyens, voisins de l'établissement, se sont manifestés pour réclamer la tenue d'un registre en vue d'un référendum sur le projet. Le plan d'agrandissement dérogerait à certains règlements d'urbanisme. Les élus du conseil d'arrondissement d'Ahuntsic-Cartierville entendent pour leur part donner leur accord à ce projet. Le projet, d'une valeur de 50 millions de dollars, vise non seulement à agrandir le centre de détention, mais aussi à le moderniser. Cette prison de juridiction provinciale aura en effet bientôt cent ans. On doit notamment y ajouter une entrée ainsi qu'un pavillon supplémentaire qui sera occupé par des services administratifs. Chez les citoyens voisins de l'établissement de 1000 détenus les avis sont partagés. Si certains n'y voient aucun inconvénient, d'autres s'inquiètent d'une éventuelle augmentation du nombre de détenus et disent craindre pour leur sécurité.
  17. Merci pour la mise à jour. J'ai hâte de voir ça terminé, avec les nouveau loft Redpath et dans quelques temps Griffintown, le sud-ouest sera assez imposant et dense.
  18. They are working on the Théatre Séville That's good news. Hoe they'll do something with this part of town quickly.
  19. Je suis surpris que Calgary n'est pas mentionné, après c'est pas la qu'il y a le plus de construction en ce moment? Anyway, Dugg the story from the page.
  20. I'm in the Special Event industry and the Windsor Station is a prime quality place for holding special events. Lots of weddings, lots of corporate events and some festivals (Beer fest. come to mind) Everyone in the industry is really happy with this transaction. GEG knows a bit more about the event industry then the CP.
  21. Source: Presse Canadienne MONTREAL - Alors que le Canadien Pacifique (TSX:CP) se rapproche de la vente de la gare Windsor, édifice historique de Montréal, un organisme de protection du patrimoine architectural, historique et paysager montréalais se dit préoccupé par ce qui se passera une fois la vente conclue. Michel Spénard, porte-parole du CP, a confirmé jeudi que le transporteur ferroviaire était impliqué dans des négociations. Il a cependant indiqué qu'aucune entente n'avait pour le moment été signée. Une station de radio montréalaise a rapporté que l'édifice historique avait été vendu à George Gillett, propriétaire du Club de hockey Canadien de Montréal. M. Spénard a refusé de se prononcer à ce sujet, affirmant que "nous ne faisons pas de commentaires au sujet de rumeurs ou de spéculations". Dinu Bumbaru, porte-parole d'Héritage Montréal, s'est dit préoccupé par le sort qui serait réservé à l'immeuble parce que les négociations ont lieu en privé. M. Bumbaru a indiqué que la gare Windsor était actuellement protégée en vertu de la Loi sur la protection des gares ferroviaires patrimoniales, mais que ce ne serait plus le cas une fois que l'édifice n'appartiendra plus au CP. Toutefois, M. Spénard a assuré que les "aspects patrimoniaux (de la gare) seront protégés lorsqu'une entente finale sera signée".

  23. Source: The Gazette Island council wants study of Blue Line plan A group of Montreal Island politicians likes what doctoral student Pierre Barrieau has to say about turning the métro's Blue Line into an underground/surface tram line. The transportation committee of the island's "agglomeration" council, which held public hearings on Mayor Gérald Tremblay's 20-year, $8.1-billion transportation plan this fall, is to consider Barrieau's proposal for a less costly alternative to extending the Blue Line underground as was suggested in the mayor's plan. The agglomeration council committee comprises suburban mayors and Montreal city councillors. One of the committee's 64 recommendations on the Tremblay plan, presented to the mayor and his administration in late December, calls for the city to proceed to feasibility studies on the Barrieau counter-proposal. As The Gazette outlined in June, Barrieau suggests replacing the métro cars that now run on the Blue Line with new tramway cars that would run inside the métro tunnel, then surface at either end and continue on above-ground lines that could be laid at a fraction of the cost of digging more tunnel. Barrieau says that for the $945-million price tag to extend the métro's Blue Line five kilometres underground to Anjou, as proposed in Tremblay's plan, the city could renovate the 9.7 kilometres of the Blue Line tunnel to accommodate a tramway and add more than 40 kilometres of above-ground tramway. ''I was pretty surprised (by the support for his project)," said Barrieau, studying for his Ph.D. in urban studies at Université du Québec à Montréal. "A lot of people said (the consultations) would be just a show and they wouldn't take people's suggestions seriously.'' The administration is expected to respond to the recommendations before March, said city councillor André Lavallée, who is responsible for the plan on the executive committee. Meanwhile, Montreal council's transportation committee, which also held public hearings on the plan this fall, has also issued 64 recommendations. The agglomeration and city council panels together received 125 briefs from the public. Both committees agree in general with the proposals in the Tremblay plan, including one to add bridge tolls as a way to raise an estimated $300 million a year to fund the plan's projects and to dissuade people from taking their cars into Montreal. The administration may amend the plan to take the committees' recommendations into account, Lavallée said. The plan should go to both councils for approval in February or March, he said. Count on several major announcements in 2008 based on the Tremblay plan, Lavallée said. "I don't want just talk," Lavallée said. "I don't want it to be political blah, blah, blah. I want results." Lavallée noted the number of vehicles in the Montreal region has doubled since 1974, from 833,000 to 1.8 million. On the island alone, the number of cars has increased by 40 per cent. The figures show transportation is a pressing issue, he said. "Traffic congestion costs $1 billion a year in losses to businesses and in damage from pollution. If we don't do anything, it'll be $2 billion."
  24. Ressortir cette construction c'est comme un couteau dans le dos. Une si belle construction à l'abandon. Gilbert a bien raison, ça et l'ilot Voyageur dans leur propre catégorie.
