    I completely agree but even if they announced the return of the expos next year a stadium is probably 5 years away. The natural usage for the dark enclosed space underneath the rail lines would be clubs and bars but given the nimby'ism of the residents in that part of griffintown and their general hatred of the already existing new city gas, I don't think they'll be welcoming more nightlife. In an ideal world the depotium would move and la caisse would open up the nazareth side and allow small bars/café/clubs to occupy that space similar to what Vienna has with the Gürtel ring road. Where a series of small establishments are located directly underneath the U-Bahn line. It would make available space that only local boutique businesses could operate given the size and add some desperately needed character to Griffintown. I wish vienna had google streetview to show how great it is. https://www.wien.info/en/lifestyle-scene/nightlife/nightlife-under-subway Apologies for the explosion of images.

    I don't think that the multiple traffic lanes surrounding the linear park and associated traffic would be the main reason for the failure of this public place, take avenue du Parc for example, similar in many ways minus the linear park in the middle yet people cross it and walk alongside it with no problem. For a linear park of this type to be successful as a public space, it either needs to be a destination in itself or a natural place people transit through. I don't know if the work by Jaume Plensa will be impressive enough on its own to draw people to it similar to the bean in Chicago. Besides that work of art, nothing about this space makes it a destination. It certainly isn't a natural transit corridor for anyone that's not in a car. If you approach it from the north you end up at the entrance of the Bonaventure expressway with nowhere to go besides where you came form. Only cars will be approaching it from the south and they can't exactly enjoy the park. East-West movements would seem to be limited to people living in Griffintown and that work or are going out in Old Montreal/La cité du multimédia. Once you crossover into griffintown from the east you're immediately confronted with a wall of condo buildings along l'inspecteur and ann. Then you're on shannon again nothing but entrances to Condo buildings, you reach Peel and a series of uninteresting chain store. A serious amount of development will be required along/under the rail lines and even at the bassin peel to make this a successful public space.

    Est-ce que je critiques le projet ou plutôt sont exécution? Montréal mérite mieux, les problèmes que j'ai relevé sont télément évidents, pourquoi ne pas avoir fait l'embarquement de l'autres coté? On peux pas ce permettre d'améliorer l'expérience touristique à la place que ca deviennes simplement un cash grab?

    Clearly, they didn't pay any attention to the details or user experience. One of the most natural things a tourist or visitor to this giant wheel will want to do is take pictures. The most natural backdrops would be the new illuminated bridge and towards the city. With that in mind, why would you have the only side that has a completely seamless pane of glass point towards the opposition direction? (the water) which is of little or no photographic value while the door and pillars are directly in the way of any view towards the city. Why have seats? It forces people to sit down instead of encouraging them to explore multiple views. If you want to take pictures of the new illiminated bridge you'll have to hope you have a half empty cabin to yourself or nicely ask people to duck out of your way while also severely limiting how you can frame the picture. Why the branding stickers on the outside glass? Yet an other obstacle to taking any decent pictures even if there weren't any seats. Their choice of cabin is so terrible and screams very cheap execution.

    Question peut-être stupide, pour une phase 2 du REM vers l'est: D'un point de vue technique est-ce que ca serai possible de convertir et prolonger la ligne bleu en REM?

    Facebook already has a decent sized team in Toronto in the MaRS discovery district, and from what I've read they got a very very favourable leasing term on their office space. I don't see why they would open a satellite office in Montréal unless their is some talent here that they haven't been able to attract to Toronto.

    Je ne pense pas que les images du raccordement à McGill sont des plans techniques mais plus tôt des illustration. Il est plus probable que le tunnel de raccordement ira ce rejoindre au métro McGill à l'entrée du centre-eaton coté metro McGill

    J'y ai faite allusion aussi à cette idée, mais il me semble que le REM veux respecter les règles de l'access universelle donc l'installation d'ascenseur quand possible et un autre member à mentionner qu'un access de surface serai plus probable à l'intérieur de la Place Montreal-Trust ou du Centre Eaton. Les deux disposant d'entrées peu utilisé coté McGill College.

    La station basin peel étant la seul station sous-terraine à avoir son propre édicules (non-partagé avec ceux du métro existant) est-ce que on peux espérer pour quelle que chose avec un peux d'audace? Rien nous laisse croire que le reste des stations (above ground) ne seront pas tous identique, donc je pence qu'il est possible de trouver l'argent dans le budget pour une très belle entrée. div053.jpg Photo by kerouac2 | Photobucket

    Le coin de Smith et Peel me parais comme étant l'option évidante. Les travaux à entreprendre sur les terrains à l'est du chemin de rail serai démesuré pour une simple entré de station et le stationnement ou est situé le bureau de vente du district griffin est encore à développer donc ils reste le parterre entre le bassin et la promenade smith qui semble parfait. 600 metre de l'ETS. Donnera vie à la promenade smith qui est décevant à date et à un coin du centre de Griffintown wellington/peel. Cela expliquerai en parti l'acquisition de CDPQ Infra de l'approche à la gare central. J'imagine le CN aurais refuser de laisser entreprendre des travaux si il en était encore propriétaire.

    Sans avoir plus d'information sur la nature des déplacements sur la ligne 165 c'est difficile de dire avec certitude comment les habitudes vont changer. À ma connaissance la 165 sert principalement au résident de CdN pour ce rendre au centre-ville si leur destination finale est sur la ligne verte. Est-ce-que l'étude de Steer Davies Gleave incluais la station édouard-montpetit? J'imagine que l'augmentation anticiper dans leur étude était des résidents de CdN qui débarque à la gare mont-royal pour ensuite prendre la 165 sud pour arriver à CdN et le trajet inverse. Avec une station E-M, est-ce-que les résidents de CdN vont préferer prendre la 165 nord pour arriver à Mont-Royal (REM)? ou vont t'ils préférer prendre la 51/129 Est pour ce rendre à Édouard-Montpetit pour ensuite arriver à McGill au lieu de la 165 -> Guy-Concordia -> McGill. Dans un scenario ou McGill est la destination finale. Si la destination finale est l'université concordia ou même l'uqam la 165 peux rester la meilleur option si E-M n'est pas si facilement accessible sur la réseau de surface.

    It's impact on parallel lines will largely depend on what the fare structure and it's integration with the STM's will be like. But I would expect changes in transit patterns. If for example you take the 121 bus route to get onto the orange line at Cote-Vertu or Sauvé and your final destination is UdeM or Downtown, it could now be faster for you stay on the bus for 10 more minutes until you get to Montpellier and take the REM. I'd also expect reduced demand for bus lines like the 129 and maybe even the 165. I would hope that the STM would consider modifying their bus routes instead of their frequency. I know it's already the case in the west-island hopefully they'll see the opportunity to improve their coverage.

    Pour la station McGill, est ce qu'on envisage un nouveau tunnel pour relier la Place Montreal-Trust et le Centre Eaton ou plus tôt l'utilisation du tunnel actuel et déplacer les commerce qui ce trouve du coté sud (surement l'option privilégier)? Google Maps Est-ce que ca serai possible d'envisager un access de surface directement sur la rue McGill College? Les trottoirs me paraisse comme étant suffisamment large et la circulation piétonne est assez faible. C'est pas idéal pour un tourist de débarquer à la station McGill est d'être obliger de naviguer le réso qui parfois peut-être comme un labyrinthe. Imaginer un homme d'affaire qui arrive à McGill et qui dois ce rendre à la Place Ville Marie. Si il suis les indications du Réso il devra passer par le centre eaton, descendre un niveau traverse le tunnel pour ensuite identifier la bonne tour à la place de simplement marché quelle metres sur McGill College.

    Peut-être pour utiliser la rue Ottawa fermer comme entrer pour une station griffintown?

    I'd say that the renderings aren't very appealing, if you want to see a smaller version of what this could potentially look like, you just have to visit the MIT campus in Boston to get an idea. The main difference being that the one in montreal won't be filled in at it's base (presumably so that people can walk through it?) which takes away from the shape of the piece. Different types of lighting should have a very dramatic effect on it. https://www.google.ca/search?q=mit+statue&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiu95fsoeDNAhVJFh4KHb7OAS4Q_AUICCgB&biw=1276&bih=783#tbm=isch&q=the+alchemist+mit

    The problem with that location is that it doesn't really allow for a nice store front. Then again if the Nike store is nice enough (We can only hope for something as nice as in narajuku tokyo) Then it would attract people regardless.
  17. Spiter_01
    we already have a Adidas store. A Nike Town and the 1st Uniqlo in Canada would be amazing. But there really aren't any free spaces along st-catherine unless we started kicking out the lower end "independent" shops.

    Do we know if they plan on replanting trees like they had promised? http://www.cyberpresse.ca/actualites/regional/montreal/200904/10/01-845677-quartier-des-spectacles-67-arbres-coupes.php and what happened to the competition for a public art work ?
  19. Spiter_01
    Honestly I wouldn't be surprised at all, this is the city of Montreal after all. With the festivals coming up soon I don't think they'll have time. When I passed by last week they were putting asphalt around the sewer drains in front of L'Astral.

    Honestly, it's only going to get worst. Instead of trying to control the action of a few in a massive crowd why not move them towards a more open area where they can celebrate? If sainte-catherine street wasn't partially closed, I'd proposed to have fans parade down sainte-catherine to the Place des Festivals (Which we know can hold several thousand people easily). You'll be keeping the trouble makers (hiding amongst the fans) away or at least taking away most of their cover, bring these people to an area that I think be much easier to for the police to control. I'm thinking we could have it go along this route: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Rue+de+la+Montagne&daddr=Rue+de+la+Montagne+to:Rue+Jeanne+Mance&hl=en&geocode=FXs4tgIdP2Gd-w%3BFQE9tgId1Fed-w%3BFfZitgId5nad-w&mra=cc&via=1&dirflg=w&sll=45.495774,-73.572264&sspn=0.007851,0.01929&ie=UTF8&ll=45.503129,-73.561492&spn=0.015701,0.038581&z=15 Ironically it's almost exactly 1 mile, maybe we can name it the Bleu Blanc Rouge Mile.
