Faubourg Sainte-Catherine

Under heavy renovation at the moment. They are adding new street-level locations despite 75% availability (only the SAQ remains) and the Stylexchange failure. Will they shake off the cockroach stigma?

 

 

 

This next picture shows flooring being put on top of the old bagel place.

I think it's not new, it just move from the opposite end of the food court.

This said, the food court is really sad looking, so little restaurants are left, the latest ones to close is the Subway and the pizza joint.

January 10th 2013 -- new burger & beer joint coming to the Faubourg... Belle & Boeuf? Looks like this is a Laval operation that's expanding downtown Montreal. I'll take it!

i agree with taylor noakes: http://www.taylornoakes.com/2014/01/03/what-to-do-with-le-faubourg/

 

this is more money down the drain unless they get a proper programming into this place.

Just gut the place and start anew. The Faubourg is dead.

The layout of this building is why nobody wants to go there. I agree with Rocco , they literally need to gut it out and rebuild the whole thing from the inside.

 

It needs to be more airy. Right now the space feels very claustrophobic.

The layout was fine in the late 90's yearly 2000, before Crofton Moore bought the place and tried to change it to God knows what!

Remember Les Terraces? What a mess! It was like playing 3-D chess: cool idea but really annoying. That's the difference between "classic" architecture (that stands the test of time) and "flavour of the week," like the Faubourg

The Faubourg transformation continues. Something big is coming?

Les propriétaires de ce centre commercial n'ont pas le choix s'ils veulent profiter de la renaissance de la rue Ste-Catherine. Ils doivent donc investir pour mettre à niveau cette grande surface, en tentant d'attirer au passage des commerces originaux, afin de se démarquer de la compétition. Donc un facelift s'impose et contrairement à un visage humain, en construction tout est toujours possible.
