MYSTERY PROJECT!!!!

52 storeys? BRING IT ON. I can't believe they have to consider the impact of blocking 1250?!! Just enforce a good design on the new tower...

Wow, that would be huge if Garda acquires G4S.

Merci pour le mis-a-jour! I hope the residential portion works out and that the rest of the project goes ahead.

We got some real wordsmiths on this site! 😂

et voila c'est parti...

I think they need some help bringing down that eyesore!! We should offer to help 😄

That's a good spot for a 6-8 story residential with commercial on the ground floor.

Wow! Quelle changement pour ce quartier. So many old industrial buildings still around.

Impressive! There’s a 21 storey building in their plans?? Would that become the tallest building on the island east of Cavendish?

LIKE J'AIME ++

A bit of a side note but I don't understand how they are allowed to have the heavy construction machinery directly on the sidewalk pavers that were just installed a few years ago? Shouldn't they be obliged to cover them with plywood or remove them? They will surely get damaged with all that heavy machinery rolling over them.

My money is on Broccolini buying it.

+1 let's do it

A+

Amazing for 2 seperate projects with seperate contractors (I think?) to work so closely together. I wonder how the common foundation wall be built? It's almost like they must have to co-ordinate this as 1 project??

They did a reverse mullet

Vous n'avez pas tort, mais vous devez tenir compte qu'il s'agissait à l'origine d'un endroit industriel (industrie légère) qui commence lentement à être changé pour un usage résidentiel. Pointe-Claire's master plan is now zoning most of that area as residential so that's why we are seeing residential development on the north side of Hymus. It's not easy to change an industrial area to a lively, dense residential area filled with stores, etc overnight. As more residents move in the area will continue to change. Blvd St Jean is not far (it's walkable) and there are plenty of stores and services there. There is also Lakeshore Hospital close by which obviously offers a key service for the senior residences. There are also parks and schools behind the senior's residences. In short, it's an area going through a transition, will be interesting to see what it looks like in 10 years!

Sorry, I meant to say the Sources circle interchange right next to Kubik, not sure why I wrote Dorval!! D'oh! But yeah I do remember the initial plans for Dorval being much nicer than what is actually happening (as per your diagram). As for the Sources interchange at the 20 I think the plan is just to shore up the existing crumbling structure, it's too expensive to replace. But man some of the merges there are sooo dangerous!

Nice addition to the area which will should help revitalize the Valois Village. Hopefully the MTQ will improve the state of the nearby Dorval circle soon, it's an unpleasant adventure every time I'm on it!!

Holy crap that is ridiculous. 🤦‍♂️

Malheuresement vrai. Comme on dit "no money no candy". In this case the candy being nice skyscrapers (and everything else associated with building those skyscrapers...).

Isn't there another thread on this already? This one. Edit: I see that @UrbMtlbeat me to it. 😄

Merci pour le mise a jour! This was only matter of time since the BeG moved to Kirkland, glad to see the area being developed even more. Pointe-Claire will have to rename avenue "auto plaza" to something else lol. I say avenue "TOD". 😄

Start your branding with an app such as "Deep Thoughts with Rocco" then work your way up to selling some "mood improvement" products. You could be onto something!
