On l'attends avec patience!!

Amazing huge news!!! The Caisse Infra devision officially announced the proposed train project for the island of Montreal and it's north and south shores. The project nicely integrates an airport light rail train. CDP Infra promotional Video http://www.montrealgazette.com/busin...20&filter=5611

Amazing news. This is totally outside the scope of what I was thinking. Imagine the frequency when all the branches meet up. Now, THAT, will be service! A promotion video from the CDPQ Infra devision.

Great news! This thread may be better suited in the YUL Airport sub-section of the forum...no?

Not much news lately. Perhaps the calm before the storm? Here's some Thursday morning news about another potential investor. http://plus.lapresse.ca/screens/f8a12a65-59f1-4dc5-8903-d93276b14a5d%7CaQZuwoECBrE2.html

This looks like a great spot for a baseball stadium

J'étais a Fenway il y a trois ans et c'était un de mes meilleurs experiences de baseball dans ma vie. Simplement incroyable come parc!

Reports saying over 90,000 tickets sold as of this morning. I'll be at both games this weekend Jack Todd talking about new financing for the Big-O http://montrealgazette.com/sports/baseball-pit-stop-at-big-o-revives-hopes

Ca le dit pas. J'ai jamais dit que c'était annulé.

Where did you hear this?

An article on the Expos and the upcoming games in LaPresse. http://www.lapresse.ca/sports/baseball/201503/30/01-4856826-nouveau-commissaire-meme-reponse-montreal-a-besoin-dun-nouveau-stade.php

My friend who lives in Toronto told me that he heard tickets sales are passing 80,000. Does anyone have any update or news on the latest count? If it's anything like last year i'm sure they'll be a huge walkup.

This could be a great solution and opportunity to integrate public transit into a new stadium proposal. If any of the sites south of downtown which we've talked about on this forum were considered, this LRT project could be a key factor. Whether it's in the location where Project Montreal proposed the stadium in place of the bonaventure, or near the costco on bridge, an LRT station could be integrated. It would provide a direct connection from the south shore, as well as a potential one-vehicle change for people coming from east, west and Laval. Would love to see this all work out with a stadium proposal! Hope CRO is seeing this!
