Faits divers: Il y avait un reportage sur Carey Price hier soir à RDS et ça l'air qu'il habite le Solano...

haha, I saw that too

I think it will be hidden behind the Bell towers from that perspective...

Oops... I just googled it. Yeah, you're right.

I was on the Ville-Marie eastbound today, just after Turcot, and I realized (I think) Altoria will rise up in the empty gap between the Bell Canada tower and the 1000. A great addition to the skyline!

Oscar Nominations came out this morning, and from what I can see, there are three Canadian nominations, all of which are for Quebecers!

Yay! I go by that thing on the highway everyday, and I shutter every time. An ugly, decrepit eyesore. This is great news.

So according to the report, completed by Fall 2012. Not bad

The wall that leads into the tunnel that links the Guy-Concordia metro station and the Hall/Library buildings has been mounted with a large Concordia sign, with the school logo. I'll try and get a picture... it looks really nice!

Habsfan: I don't know about Altoria, but someone posted a couple months ago that Altitude has an official height of 123 metres. I believe it was the developer who gave that number.

Les coûts du CHUM explosent

Les coûts de construction du Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM) sont encore une fois revus à la hausse. Alors que le futur hôpital, qui sera construit sur l'actuel site de l'Hôpital Saint-Luc, devait coûter 1,2 milliard, il coûtera plutôt 2,089 milliards. Le gouvernement a accepté d'augmenter de 30 000 mètres carrés la superficie du projet, ce qui entraîne une hausse de 323 millions du budget.

It'll be spectacular to see it going up from de Maisonneuve boulevard on the Concordia campus! The MB building idea sounds like a good one!

Oh terribly sorry Pedepy... please, can a moderator remove the thread at once? Thank you.

Didn't know where to post this, but it makes the most sense here...

Trudeau Airport was mentioned on Jeopardy last night... here's the link to youtube!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hHKgaqL5d8

The category was International Airports... they were given the name of the airport and they had to answer the city it is located in. The category begins at 7:08. Trudeau was worth $1000.

I was at Vendome yesterday, waiting for the train, and I was able to see the construction site for the first time... it is MASSIVE. I mean, I had an idea of how big the site might be, but it just exceeded every impression I had. It was pouring rain, but they were still working away... I encourage anyone who might be in the area to check it out!

Wow. I'm very impressed. Thanks for the photos!

If only they could re-do the Hall building like the other buildings... I really hope it is in the plans.

I believe I heard the first train (9 cars I think?) will arrive in June 2013, followed by one new series of trains per month starting in February 2014.

The bare side of the tunnel is supposed to feature art! I guess they got lazy at putting it up lol I'm sure sooner or later it'll go up. Concordia is quickly becoming one of the most advanced and beautiful universities in Canada.

Amazing news; as a Concordia student, this is great to see!

I believe $150m might be the biggest budget in the history of Montreal, and according to IMDB.com, Tom Hardy has been cast, with Johnny Depp, Charlize Theron and Angelina Jolie all rumoured to star. It'll be called "Snow White and the Huntsman" due out in December 2012.

It's almost done, final stages now.

hahahahahaha suck it Toronto

Do tell!!

Great news! Ramsay had said he was looking at buying/starting a Toronto restaurant, or one in Vancouver and yet, Montreal ends up with the first in the country. Not bad at all!
