Ne faire qu'un avec le quartier

Publié le 18 novembre 2019

Les projets comme Esplanade Cartier permettent à plus de gens d’habiter au cœur de la ville pour la rendre toujours plus humaine et vivante. Parce que plus on est nombreux à habiter un quartier, plus on a accès à des services de proximité (commerces, transports en commun, activités culturelles, etc.) et plus les lieux sont animés.

Mais cette densification doit se faire dans le respect de la trame urbaine en place. Et c’est ce qu’on fait nos architectes. Pour que le projet s’intègre harmonieusement au quartier Sainte-Marie, ils ont fait preuve d’une grande sensibilité face au bâti existant et ont réfléchi l’aménagement du projet jusque dans les moindres détails.

Une expérience piéton optimisée

Pour conserver un quartier à taille humaine, on a conçu le bâtiment à différentes échelles. Au niveau du trottoir, il ne compte ainsi que 3 étages de hauteur, tandis que les étages supérieurs s’élèvent en retrait de la rue. Résultat: un projet moins intimidant vu de la rue.

De la même façon, au lieu de former un seul et même bloc, le bâtiment a été « découpé » en plusieurs façades distinctes pour créer de plus petits volumes rappelant ceux des immeubles résidentiels du quartier. Ce détail architectural permet d’intégrer Esplanade Cartier à la trame faubourienne sans s’imposer, en plus d’alléger et de rythmer le projet pour mieux l’ouvrir sur le quartier et permettre aux résidents d’avoir du plaisir à y déambuler.

Des détails esthétiques bien pensés

Encore une fois pour mieux s’intégrer et assurer un lien avec les immeubles avoisinants, nos architectes ont conçu des détails esthétiques et structurels uniques et inusités, véritables clins d’œil aux classiques de l’architecture de Montréal.

Le projet intègre ainsi des éléments esthétiques intemporels, comme les escaliers en colimaçon typiques de Montréal qui permettent d’accéder à certaines unités, ou encore la façade en briques rouges rappelant le passé industriel de la ville. À cela s’ajoutent des détails plus contemporains, comme la brique claire ou encore les escaliers de secours externes. L’aménagement des espaces publics et des bâtiments a aussi été réfléchi pour mettre en valeur le pont Jacques Cartier, joyau de la métropole.

Ce mariage d’éléments inusités est un hommage au côté éclectique et coloré de Montréal.

Un tout cohérent et invitant

Tous ces « détails » participent à l’unité du projet et à son intégration harmonieuse au quartier Sainte-Marie. Pour que chaque propriétaire d’Esplanade Cartier se sente un résident à part entière du quartier.

Des espaces publics animés

La placette et le parc viennent aussi ponctuer l’architecture du projet. Perméables, ils l’aèrent et l’ouvrent sur le quartier. Les commerces, terrasses et bureaux de la placette dynamisent la vie de quartier de jour comme de soir. Quant au parc, il ajoute un côté organique et naturel au projet et fait respirer le bâti.

S'il arrive à faire tout les projets du terrain avec une aussi bonne qualité, ou même plus grande, on aura droit à un superbe résultat.

Prével has kicked off sales for the first phase of Esplanade Cartier, a residential project on one of the largest sites still available for development near downtown Montreal.

The project’s first phase covers the first 50,000 square feet of an eventual 400,000-square-foot development just east of the Jacques Cartier Bridge, bordered by Sainte-Catherine and Parthenais Streets, De Lorimier Avenue and René-Lévesque Boulevard.

It will see construction of an $85-million, 14-storey condo with 114 units on the northeast portion of the site, at Sainte-Catherine and Parthenais Streets.

Units will vary from about 400 to 1,200 square feet, with prices starting at just under $200,000. Prices are a bit less expensive than for other Prével condos in Griffintown or downtown, Prével co-president Laurence Vincent told RENX.

The aim is to revive a rundown area and bring people back to a neighbourhood “as we’ve done in the past,” Vincent said. Prével was a pioneer in condo development in Griffintown and has rejuvenated other once-neglected Montreal areas.

About Esplanade Cartier

Construction should start early next year, with delivery in the fall of 2021. The entire site should be built over a five- to six-year period.

The ground floors of Esplanade Cartier will be primarily commercial with neighbourhood stores, such as food stores, cafés and restaurants.

“The vision is to create links and bring in people from outside the area, and to recreate the commercial strip that exists (further west) on Ste. Catherine and to bring it east of the Jacques Cartier Bridge,” Vincent said.

To create a more human scale, the section of the first phase fronting Ste. Catherine Street will be three storeys and the 14-storey tower will be set back from the street. In a nod to typical Montreal architecture, winding exterior staircases will provide access to some of the units.

“The architecture is modern, but well-anchored to the neighbourhood,” Vincent said.

Esplanade Cartier’s first phase is being designed by architectural firm NOS, which designed Prével’s Union sur le Parc condo project in the Shaughnessy Village area of downtown Montreal.

Public square, project house

There will also be a public square or “placette” on the site as well as a “maison du projet” or project house, a 3,000-square-foot neighbourhood meeting place with a rooftop greenhouse. “It’s something that’s often done in Europe, but hasn’t been seen much in Montreal until now,” Vincent said.

Prével is collaborating with Le Carrefour Alimentaire, a local organization that provides nutritional education and promotes healthy lifestyles, to provide programming at the project house.

The development will also feature a bike storage room in the lobby: “Through small gestures, like facilitating access to bikes from the ground floor, we can encourage good habits in which people prioritize active transport rather than cars.”

There will be one floor of underground parking in the first phase.

Prével is waiting for a go-ahead from the City of Montreal before it unveils its plans for the entire site. The borough is still working out the urban plan for the neighbourhood and Vincent expects development plans to be finalized by late next spring.

Office space in future phase

However, the rest of Esplanade Cartier will have a significant office space component.

Vincent said that will be important in revitalizing the area and ensuring the site is lively during the day and evening, and on weekdays and weekends. “It shouldn’t only be a bedroom community.”

Vincent said Esplanade Cartier will comply with Montreal’s proposed 20-20-20 bylaw that – should it go ahead – will require new residential developments to provide 20 per cent each of social, affordable and family housing. The bylaw has faced stiff opposition from developers.

“We’re waiting for the final regulations of the bylaw and we’ll adjust the project in consequence.”

Vincent says planned developments nearby at the CBC/Radio-Canada headquarters, Maison de Radio-Canada and at the Molson Brewery plant will be beneficial to the Prével project.

Groupe Mach is planning Quartier des Lumières, a 4.5 million-square-foot development that will incorporate the Maison de Radio-Canada tower (the current Montreal CBC and Radio-Canada headquarters) and parking lot.

CBC/Radio-Canada will move into a new, smaller headquarters next door, which is currently being built by Broccolini.

Prével, other developers consulting

Molson will vacate its Montreal plant on Notre Dame Street for a new facility on the South Shore.

Groupe Sélection, Montoni and the Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ acquired the Molson site and are planning a residential project based on the “live, work and play” theme, that will also  incorporate business, commercial and tourist aspects.

Vincent said Prével has been speaking with Groupe Sélection and Groupe Mach on a regular basis about their respective plans.

Prével is currently planning another residential project at a site now home to abandoned warehouses in the Tétreaultville area of the city, facing Parc de la Promenade Bellerive, Vincent said.

Prével is a family business founded in 1978 that has more than 100 employees. The company has built more than 11,000 housing units and says it is Montreal’s largest residential real estate developer.

I am very happy to read that the rest of the project will have a significant office component. This is exactly what this area needs.
