Uggghh.....horrible looking building with no character that has ruined the Montreal skyline...what a shame

Unfortunately, this building is an ugly edition to the Montreal skyline and has ruined the skyline forever. Hopefully, they can build something in front of it to cover it up.

It is a shame, they had a chance to make an iconic building and ended up ruining the skyline. Shame on them for settling for mediocrity.

Here is an article talking about the new bridge along with visuals:

and this a visual of a simple design for a bridge:

and a more designed Champlain bridge:

Looks like they are talking about it as well now:

I know what you mean when you say Mississauga downtown is a mismtach of buildings...If Laval comes up with a master plan for the look and feel of towering structures, much like how Vancouver's English Bay requires all glass on high rises to be a certain style, they should be fine

Like the one park tower in Missiauga, that would be wicked in Laval;

Would it not be great is Santiago Calatrava did a design for a new Champlain Bridge in Montreal? It would stand as an Iconic symbol as an entrance into Montreal,

What do you guys think? I am gonna try to do up some sketches

Great ideas for Brossard! I think Brossard is at a crossroads now, they should start building more high rises, as Brossard is quickly running out of space

Thanks for that one ! Yeah, I can work on that line, i could probably get that fixed in photoshop, will send one back once I am done!

Thanks,

DO you have a hi-res version of the second picture of the stadium with the city skyline?

I have been looking for that to put on the wall of my garage for my expos tribute

Brossard needs more high rises i find, to take advantage of the views they get of Montreal

finally, something diffferent and unique being built!

Happy to have it in Brossard, but one ugly building!

ugly building

is this true? Is this really being built? If so, this will be beautiful

Ugly building...

Wow! This would be amazing! Would love if there was a real life rendering pic so I could use as my desktop!
