Rocco Posted May 27, 2018 Share Posted May 27, 2018 Intéressant.. mais ce qui serait encore plus intéressant est l'historique derrière l'abandon de tels projets. Dans l'article on parle comme si tout est ficelé, que les travaux d'excavation vont débuter incessamment, etc.. que s'est-il passé? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marco Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 En regardant ce projet, je viens de comprendre pourquoi ce terrain était vacant jusqu'au milieu des années '80, quand ils ont construit l’édifice laid de Bell média, ils ont démoli les maisons en prévision du projet montré ici, merci de la trouvaille.

internationalx Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Wow! This is one I had never heard of. Certainly, had it been built (I wish), we'd have a little cluster of towers in the east, close the the J-C Bridge. That would have been awesome.

I think that once the south west is filled out, the next area to fill up will be around the gay village and J-C bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
