En effet. Juste ce qui existe déjà avec une allusion à une tour au dessus, mais aucune idée de la facture visuelle de la tour elle-même.

To be fair they had no choice.

 

 * Either the cropped the skyline to be less impressive than it would, in fact, be.

 * Either they made the promo shot closer to the window like mid-way into the table in the center, which would be weird.

 * Or... they compressed the skyline aspect ratio to fit both the living room and the view close to the window in the same shot.

 

I don't think it's misleading, it just showing 2 "real" things in the same mockup photograph, cheating on both a bit to make it fit.

Leaving this here, vu sur une annonce. On peut distinguer d'avantage la tour en retrait.

"Le revêtement extérieur en granit dépoli confère à l’ensemble une sobriété élégante, à la fois contemporaine et intemporelle. Le design des façades prend ainsi racine dans la pureté d’un classicisme revisité. Entre blancheur éclatante de la pierre et rigueur de sa mise en forme, la tour MAA s’impose comme une œuvre moderne, mais également empreinte de l’histoire de la métropole."

Project of the week: MAA Condominiums & Penthouses

URSULA LEONOWICZ

At the end of 2018, Devimco was selected by Club Sportif MAA to develop an exclusive $150-million real estate project — MAA Condominiums & Penthouses — located directly above the former Montreal Amateur Athletic Association (MAAA) that was originally established in 1881.

The 33-storey project will feature a completely revitalized, state-of-the-art environment for its 2,800 members, as well as a stylish mix of 300 condominiums, executive suites and penthouses.

“The history of the athletic association and the exclusive nature of a private club is at the very core of our design strategy,” said William Atkinson, the architect for Devimco. “We wanted to capture the spirit and prestige of the MAA and infuse it into every part of the design.”

A budget of $20 million is also being planned for the reconstruction of Club Sportif MAA, which has undergone numerous renovations over the years.

History

Born from the merger of three founding clubs — the Montreal Snow Shoe Club, Montreal Lacrosse Club and Montreal Bicycle Club — the MAAA was created to provide young Montrealers with a place to practise competitive sports in Westmount. The association moved to its current location on Peel Street, just south of Sherbrooke Street, in 1905 to welcome a larger membership.

The home club of Canada’s first Olympic gold medallist, Étienne Desmarteau, who was a police officer in the city, the MAAA also played host to four Stanley Cup winners and a Grey Cup champion.

 

Neighbourhood

Located in the Golden Square Mile, which at the end of the 19th century was where the country’s wealth was concentrated, the new MAA Condominiums & Penthouses will pay homage to the neighbourhood’s rich history.

“We added inserts of golden metallic cladding throughout the tower, at key levels, to illustrate the neighbourhood in the architecture of the tower,” Atkinson said. “Part of the third floor is going to be dedicated to wellness, with a small gym and full spa. We designed the floor in a very contemporary way, but with the feel of what a club in the 1920s or ’30s was like.”

Today, the area plays host to a variety of trendy shops, restaurants and bars, as well as both McGill and Concordia universities, the McCord Museum and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.

Design and architecture

“The entire sports club is being rebuilt into a state-of-the-art facility, but we’re keeping the historic façades of the existing building. The whole stretch on Peel and a major part of the side façade, which is in the alley, will be restored,” Atkinson said.

“For pedestrians, there won’t be much difference to the landscape of the street; we’re keeping it as it is now, but we’re going to be repairing the entire façade, bringing it back to its former glory.”

Devimco will be working with architects Lemay Michaud as well as the city of Montreal, Heritage Montreal, the Ministère de la Culture et des Communications, and a consultant in historical preservation for the project.

 

Condos, executive suites and penthouses

The first three floors of the project will be dedicated to the 45,000-square-foot Club Sportif MAA, followed by a mezzanine reserved for residents. The first 17 residential floors will contain classic, high-end condos that range from studios to three-bedroom units.

The 21st floor will house some of the project’s amenities as well as five unique townhouses: two-storey units with private terraces. The next eight floors will be dedicated to executive suites — extra-spacious units that range from two to three bedrooms — with views of either downtown or Mount Royal.

The last three floors of the project will house the penthouses.

Amenities

• Club Sportif MAA (residents will have access to preferential rates and their own private entrance)
• A wellness centre with a gym, Nordic spa and full thermotherapy circuit
• An urban lounge with a grand piano, fireplace and double-height library with a spiral staircase, plus a private dining room with a catering area and terrace
• Two private lounges, a wine cellar with a wine tasting room, and a terrace for executive suite and penthouse residents
• A games room with virtual golf
• Three levels of underground parking

Delivery and sales office

Sales for MAA Condominiums & Penthouses, which is currently in pre-construction and scheduled for delivery in 2021, begin this month. Construction is slated to begin in August. The sales office is located at 4120 Ste-Catherine St. West and will open in the spring.
