  1. http://montreal.ctv.ca/servlet/an/local/CTVNews/20120601/mtl_saputo_stadium_120601/20120601?hub=Montreal There's a video report on the CTV site. Check it out!
  2. The future phases are south of the Bell Centre
  3. Altitude is more upscale I think. The ceilings are much higher, about 3.7 metres on average.
  4. GDS, are you guessing or you have information? It really doesn't look taller than 120 metres...
  5. This is deeply upsetting, especially as a Cinema student. As someone who has been many times, the CinéRobothèque is truly something very special.
  6. I was at Place des Arts yesterday and you can just barely see Altitude rising in front of Place Ville Marie. The impact of Altitude from the Quartier des Spectacles is going to be really something special. The impact of the Marriott will also be something else, from that spot.
  7. I was on the Champlain Bridge today and you can see the crane for Altitude and the tower slightly rising. It's actually amazing how many cranes are viewable from the bridge... it's something I've never experienced in my lifetime!
  8. I didn't know where to put this. It talks about a few projects and what status they're at: http://www.montrealgazette.com/entertainment/Montreal+skyline+facing+changes/6310073/story.html
  9. http://stm.info/English/info%5Ca-nomMPM10consul.htm In spring 2011, more than 6000 people took part in a public consultation to find a name for the next generation of métro cars. The time has come to choose your favourite one among the five finalist names, which are: AZUR Refers to the intense blue colour of the sky. As such, AZUR perfectly brings to mind the colour of the métro’s future cars. BOOMERANG The idea behind BOOMERANG is that the métro always returns to its point of departure. The name itself implies reliability and dynamic movement. VÉGA VÉGA is relatively close to the Sun. Seen from Earth, it is the fifth brightest star in the night sky. A short, simple name, which makes VÉGA fun. It reminds us of the headlights on a metro as it enters the station. KRONOS In Greek mythology, KRONOS (or Cronus) is a ruling god that personified time and destiny. When spoken, the word brings to mind a chronometer, used to keep time accurately. Such an instrument is essential to operating a transit system, the same way a watch is essential to a train conductor. The letter K also gives it more steadiness and strength. ZÉPHYR According to Greek mythology, ZÉPHYR is the god of the west wind. A gentle breeze from the west, fresh, light, warm and pleasant… like the métro. Not only are the origins of the word interesting and rich with meaning, but it also gives a solid, credible name to our future metro. Consultation period From Thursday, March 8 to Sunday, March 25, 2012, at 4 p.m.
  10. As has already been stated a number of times, LeftCoaster (who works for CF or at least has an insider view) always said that this project would be the shorter one, and that Montreal would probably be getting a new tallest building once CF uses all the land it has bought. This is still good news!
  11. Yeah, it'll probably be about 132m which makes it even shorter than the Marriott Courtyard (136M).
  12. You included the reflection of Altoria on Tour de la Bourse I think..? Nice location. Kinda really nice actually.

  14. Without Quebec, Canadian cinema is nothing, I agree. But remember, it's Best Foreign Language Film, not Best Film from a Foreign Country if more non-English Canadian films were made (like Water), maybe it would be better represented. Still, Quebec cinema is truly a gem in the film world (this coming from a film student who has seen film's from all around the world!)
  15. Water (2006) par Deepa Mehta. Elle était née en Inde mais elle s'est installé à Toronto en 1973. Le film est en Hindi.
  16. Unfortunately it has no shot against A Separation (2011) but I am so excited to see it nominated. Canada has now had 6 nominated films (5 from Quebec) in the Best Foreign Language category, with one win.
  17. It is clearly visible from the Ville-Marie expressway now. Rising quickly!
  18. And Scorsese shot The Aviator (2004) here, so he knows the city. This is excellent news.
