  1. Spectacular! There's something really special about it...
  2. No, there's no way Quebec City has more tourists than Montreal. Maybe they meant Quebec, the province, in general?
  3. http://inside-digital.blog.lonelyplanet.com/2011/06/22/is-this-the-worlds-best-summer-city/ click the link to see the ranking
  4. Je pense que c'est 124 mètres comme hauteur finale, même avec les deux premiers étages grand comme ca.
  5. I think it's all the land, yeah. CTV quoted the price tag at $150 million for all of it.
  6. Cadillac Fairview spent $150 million buying the land. I think we'll see SOMETHING go up
  7. Printemps 2011? Il en reste 19 jours
  8. Thanks JFrosty! I'm so happy it's being re-cladded. It really stuck out like a sore-thumb in the Quartier des Spectacles.
  9. Exxxxxcitinggggggg! Come on Waldorf, make my last year at Concordia even better, as I gaze up at a new floor being added every week. I can dream, right?
  10. I didn't know where to put this, and perhaps someone has already mentioned it, but I was in the Quartier des Spectacles today, and I noticed they just started re-cladding the ugly yellow UQAM building with grey brick! If you ask me, it looks much nicer than the original yellow-stained facade.
  11. Hmm... I went by on May 9th, and they had the scaffolding up for the 2nd floor. It's now the 25th and they don't seem very much advanced from that... here's hoping things pick up!
  12. You wanna hear something really wacky? In 1976, Montreal hosted the Olympics. The following year, in 1977, the Canadiens finished first in the NHL and won the Stanley Cup. In 1988, Calgary hosted the Olympics. The following year, in 1989, the Flames finished first in the NHL and won the Stanley Cup. In 2010, Vancouver hosted the Olympics. The following year, in 2011, the Canucks finished first in the NHL and are now in the Stanley Cup Final... I guess hosting the Olympics in this country brings you closer to the Stanley Cup But seriously, I hate the Canucks. LET'S GO LIGHTNING!
  13. I sat two seats away from Kent Nagano today on my flight from Frankfurt to Montreal. He looks much older in person
  14. On CTV News last night, they said the destruction of the buildings will begin "in a couple of days"
  15. They have begun removing the eastern exterior wall! It's moving quickly!
  16. I'm totally getting ahead of myself, but I've been in the Saint Laurent headquarters a few times; if they want to regroup everything under one roof, that would result in a MASSIVE tower, especially if it was located on a rather small plot of land in the QdS. There are dozens of sound rooms, conference rooms that stretch on and on over hallways that never seem to end, and theatre rooms of all different sizes, not to mention the areas that are restricted only to employees, with the archives that consist of tens of thousands of video projects, and people's offices. Unless they really want to keep the Saint Laurent building and only have a small tower downtown... we shall know soon enough!
  17. You guys are right, 145-155m makes more sense. Also, 133m for the 27-storey tower seems... weird? That's 4.9m PER floor. That's a little high, no?
