  1. Il y a 4 heures, ça coute cher a dit :

    L'usine a fermé il y a une quizaine d'années....a l'époque une mauvaise odeur et une suie rouge couvrait les résidences du quartier....Les propriétaires de maisons unifamiliales tout autour on vu la valeur de leur propriété explosé, plus que la moyenne du quartier.       Il n'y a pas eu trop de contestation de nymbys,  surtout que le quartier est construit a la limite de Lasalle et ville-emard. 

    Il y a tellement de la place en masse à LaSalle pour du développement que les nymbys se rendent même pas comptent qu'il y a des nouveau projets qui apparaissent ici et là.

    Toutes les entrées de garage donnent sur Mayor donc ça n’arrivera jamais.

    L’aménagement idéal pour Mayor sera quelque chose semblable à la rue de la Concorde, mais ça ne pourra arriver (tout comme le parc de l’église Saint-James et le réaménagement de la rue Saint-Alexandre) qu’une fois les travaux de Sainte-Catherine terminés.

    Des bollards automatiques pour les usagers des garages pourrait être une solution pour la piétonisation.

    Once again, the idea that snow somehow limits the use of more vibrant colours appears to be yet another local assumption. How do other snow-belt cities — none of which come close to having the snow removal capabilities and expertise of Montreal! — manage to use properly distinguishable pavement colours for transitways and bike lanes? Why must we always aim to do things differently from established norms, and inevitably fail to do things better than the how it’s done elsewhere?

    Minneapolis, which has hotter summers, colder winters, and more storms than Montreal:

    Boston (more snow per snowfall, lousier clearing):

    Toronto, New York, etc. all use red paint or MMA. But even places that use pigmented asphalt have more contrast than we use. Pigmented asphalt costs substantially more than paint, thermoplastic, or MMA, and is less flexible — ie more costly to repair or do over — so it’s not a question of costs. 

    Les amaricains sont parfait, ils l'ont l'affaire eux autres, voila quelques exemple éloquent a Minneapolis la parfaite image.thumb.png.e8c83ac317e72a217a36226158203df9.png

    nous les québécois on est trop simplet pour comprendre le concept de la peinture sur les routes. 

    petite stat sur les accumulation de neige pour finir (2019)

    Minneapolis : 137 cm

    Boston : 111 cm

    New York : 63 cm

    Toronto : 152 cm

    Montreal : 235 cm

    p.s: the claim about colder temps in Minneapolis are completely false, we have the same averages.

    So great activity at street level is limited to 19 floors building? Mmmm, ok. Ever heard of height and activity combined? What SHOULD be there. This is not Griffintown, this is De Maisonneuve! Why are we allowing Art de Vivre at 35 floors near Quartier des Spectacles, but limiting height in an otherwise super dense area? We built Hotel de La Montagne in 1966 next to this lot at 19 floors and 50 years later we are still stuck at that level in that area? Simply incredible.

    Calme toi là, c'est pas Sim City, pas obligé d'avoir un core haut et le reste tout petit. On peut mélanger les trucs un peu.

    In a previous post, I explained the difference between the road network of the MTQ  and the one by its Ontatio counterpart, where counties pay for local roads.   

    More importantly, tolls can only make sense in a few limited cases and even then, they can have counterproductive effects.  It is not for nothing that Montreal fought so hard to avoid tolls on the new Samuel-de-Champlain bridge.  Interestingly, those countries in Europe that have toll roads have them on intercity/interregional/international segments, but not within metropolitan areas  -- see Paris, Warsaw etc.  In Spain, toll roads originally funded by the private sector are gradually turning into freeways when the contracts expire.  In the USA, toll roads mostly preceded the advent of Eisenhower's Interstate System; they include New York State Thruway, Pennsylvania Turnpike, Ohio Turnpike etc.  In Canada there used to be a number of toll highways and bridges, some of them pretty small, like the Pont de Terrebonne.  In the Province of Québec, the Office des Autoroutes was charged with building radial motorways from Montreal, which "gave" us the Autoroute des Laurentides, the Autoroute des Cantons de l'Est and l'Autoroute de la Rive-Nord., all charging tolls  -- which were subsequently suppressed, gradually, commencing with the areas further away from Montreal.  More recently, a new "generation" of toll roads have appeared on the map, e.g. the bridge of A-25 over the rivière des Prairies and the bridge of the A-30 over the St.Lawrence River, as well as the 407 ETR north and west of Toronto (the more recent eastern extension is also a toll road, altough it is owned by the provincial government).  I must say that I question the wisdom of charging tolls on highways which serve to attenuate congestion on freeways such as the 401.  If tolls are found to be desirable, they shoud instead be set to discourage entrace into the core of the cities, as they do in London UK.  

    Regardless, back to the issue of the Dorval interchange (on which I commented a couple of times previously), I can only add that I am disappointed that improving access from the west and the north appears to have been overlooked, despite the fact that many companies have chosen this location because of the proximité of the airport.  

    In my mind it would be tolls for every single road. Every driver needs to pay for every km of road he or she drives on.
