Merci pour les photos. Quelle déception...

J'espère qu'ils vont donner une couche finale de peinture car sur place on voit plein de 'patchage' de teintes légèrement différentes à plein d'endroits. C'est pas une finition professionnelle, disons, au niveau peinture.

L’ont-ils fait finalement?

417 000 $ + taxes pour 488 pi²... Montréal vient définitivement de passer dans une autre ligue... 

On 2018-09-24 at 9:41 PM, Ludo87 said:

Les prix en prévente tournent autour de 850$ le pi2 (avant taxes), certes beaucoup plus cher que TDC3 par exemple ou ils étaient autour de 550$.

Il semblerait que ce ne soit pas 80% des unités qui soient réservés, mais 80% des unités disponibles lors de l’événement. (information provenant d'un courtier platine pour VSLP)

 

Voici pour ceux que ça intéresse la liste des prix de départ

Ajoutes une place de stationnement et un locker  à ces prix...

C'est à se demander à quoi ça a servi de faire un bureau des ventes. Anyways, morale de l'histoire : Bravo Brocco.?

Quand tu achètes un condo à $1000 le pied carré, tu t'attends à le faire dans un endroit présentable.

My god, ces 3-4 coins de rue aux alentours vont être denses dans les prochaines années, déjà que c'est le cas maintenant. J'adore la couronne, en espérant qu'ils la scrappent pas en cours de route.

Moi je pense seulement au propriétaires de condos des premières 35 étages de L'Avenue... Ils vont etre carrément encerclés sans vue...

80% vendu vendu (!!!!??) ou réservé à des courtiers qui vont avoir des exclusivités sur des blocs d'unités?

80% des unités réservées par des acheteurs avec un dépôt de $3000.

National Bank buys Broccolini site for new Montreal HQ

 

National Bank (NA-T) will spend about $500 million to build a new head office in what will be the largest office tower in downtown Montreal since the construction of 1250 René Lévesque a quarter of a century ago. 

The planned 36-storey tower at the corner of St. Jacques Street and Robert Bourassa Boulevard will be built on an 85,000-square-foot plot of land the bank bought from Broccolini in a deal finalized on Monday. The bank did not disclose the amount it paid for the land.

Downtown Montreal ripe for new office tower: NKFD

The land was part of a 135,000-square-foot property Broccolini bought just last week from Magil Laurentienne and Desjardins for $100 million. Broccolini will maintain ownership of the rest of the property, about 50,000 square feet.

“It’s a big site. We have our own plans for a portion of it,” says Jean Langlois, director of communications and marketing at Broccolini, adding “we’re definitely looking at building something in the same spirit and at least the same height as L’Avenue.”

He says Broccolini plans to build a mixed-use building on its portion of the site that would combine office and condos in the manner of L’Avenue. That 50-storey building, being built by near the Bell Centre, will have 41 storeys of condos, five storeys of office space, two of retail and two of amenities.

National Bank had started to renovate its current head office at 600 de La Gauchetière West to develop a modern work environment, says Claude Breton, its vice-president – public affairs. The bank has been based in that office tower since the early 1980s.

But “it was costing $3 million per floor to do the transformation and we came to the conclusion that at that price it would be better to invest in a new building.

“It’s a vote of confidence in Montreal,” adds Breton of the new headquarters.

 

Current Montreal HQ to be sold

National Bank’s current head office will be put up for sale with proceeds going toward construction of the new building. A selling price for the building has not been established.

The bank will be the sole occupant of the building which will meet LEED and WELL certifications. It will contain a daycare centre, cafeteria and feature a green roof.

National Bank will partner with Broccolini, Pomerleau and other Quebec- and Canadian-based professionals, specialists and suppliers to build the new office tower which has a planned occupancy date of 2022.

“We’re going to put a clear focus on Quebec and Canadian content and ensure people who work with us are bank clients,” Breton says.

The City of Montreal has not yet given its approval to the project, which National Bank hopes will be linked to the city’s underground network of pedestrian pathways. The Square Victoria Metro station is nearby.

Architectural competition for design

No plans or designs for the building have been finalized, says Breton, noting there will be an invited architectural competition in the coming months.

“We want to obtain a distinctive signature for Montreal,” he says, given the building will serve as an entry point to motorists entering downtown from the former Bonaventure Expressway. The area has been transformed recently into an urban boulevard with art installations.

The bank’s new headquarters will bring most of its various Montreal teams together under one roof.

Five floors of National Bank’s current head office have been renovated and another five will be renovated this year, as the bank awaits construction of its new home, Breton says.

National Bank’s new headquarters will mark a return to St. Jacques St. where it had its head office more than a century ago.

Une autre tour à 50 étages sur le site!

C'est 15 minutes en vrais de marche.... Ce site est parfait. A Cheval entre le vieux port le centreville et des quartiers super branchés. La rive sud pas loin. Une station de train électrique qui arrive bien tôt. Etc etc etc.... Ceux qui disent que ce site n'est pas un bon site n'y connaisse rien ou ne sont jamais venu dans ce coin de la ville. En plus un super potentiel de développements au alentour. 

Désolé mais ce sont tous des faussetés.

Aucun rapport avec le Vieux.

15 minutes du Station Windsor peut-être si tu as 20 ans et tu brûle des feux rouges. Par contre remonter tout ça en pente?!

À la sortie de la Montagne de la 720 il n'y a qu'une seule voie pour descendre à Wellington! C'est déjà congestionné SANS stade!

Et quel gros développement vois-tu de plus dans le coin? C'est un terrain encerclé de nouveaux édifices gouvernementaux (Loto QC, Poste Canada) dans un secteur industriel et il y déjà une tonne de nouveaux condos à Griffintown. 

De plus les vents sont affreux dans le coin. As-tu déjà entendu parler de l'Autostade?

Supposedly ~65% sold in pre sales alone....even before the sales office opens to the general "public".  Wow.  

I'm not surprised. I was there the very first night, and family friends were buying 2 at a time. Was a frenzy.

In fact with the stadium it will be easier because that the city will do not just new exits but an entire new neighborhood.  It's the perfect place.  14 minutes walk to St-an Antoine Street. Near both bridges, autoroute Ville Marie, Bonaventure and the REM.

 

It is the futur of Mtl.  The Casino was suppose to be right there with the Cirque du Soleil.  I heard that the city is not planning a stadium only but as mentionned a new place to live  and the stadium will be the driving force of that place

Actually, it's 26 whole minutes from the southern most point of downtown. Quite the stroll... 

Let's keep alleging it's an accessible site...

Dude, I access the area on a daily basis. I know very well how much how bottlenecked the Wellington and Mill  and Victoria bridges can be. 

But it should be obvious that if they're building a stadium there, the parking would be accessed from the Bonaventure, which is not bottlenecked. That means easy access from the 720E, the 15S and  the 10N.

The REM station means easy transit access from the south shore, the west island, airport, downtown, metro etc.

Do you gas up at Costco then? How do like those winds?

Bad access? The hell are you talking about?

The site will be easily accessible by both rapid transit (REM station) and highways (720-E, 15S, 10N)

Have you ever accessed that area from Wellington or the Victoria Bridge? I'm willing to bet you haven't. WITHOUT a 40,000 seat stadium it's a total bottleneck. Absolutely no access from any highway. 

They MAY create an exit from H10 but that's hardly what I'd call accessible.

As someone how intends to buy 4 season tickets to the new ballpark, I would prefer with a roof. That area of town is freaking cold! The winds are nasty and it is generally a very unpleasant area except mid june to mid august. I know because I put gas at Costco and I am very often freezing my ass off.

 

That's exactly why it shouldn't be located there. Crazy winds and bad access. The ballpark needs to be open-air and located elsewhere.

Unfortunately, it's the only lot available downtown and the possibility of putting the park in another central part of town no longer seems to even be conceivable at this point. 

I would personally have put it back at Jarry Park. Historical significance, access to the metro, access to the train line and more central in the context of Greater Montreal. Demolish the god-awful Stade Uniprix and *incoming pipe-dream* build a baseball stadium and tennis stadium connected together (see Moscow's new VTB stadium) with an adjacent tennis and baseball training centre and extensive underground parking. The footprint would only be 1/3 of Jarry Park.

Si les matériaux sont de qualité, je suis persuadé que la tour sera très belle. 

C'est assuré avec Broccolini. Ils ne font rien à moitié. 

La place pour mettre une 180+ serait sur le site du Bureau en Gros. 

Ah je viens juste de le trouver

Just got back from the launch for friends and family. 

Confirming that it's 35 floors. 

I didn't geek out and ask the developer for the height, but it says that ceiling heights are between 9 and 13 feet, so that means at least 120 metres. 

Le One King Street West a Toronto par example.
