I managed to extract some higher resolution images for your viewing pleasure.

 

Can you imagine walking down René-Lévesque and having this Manhattanesque canyon in front of you?

Now we need like a 100 tall buildings like this in the city and I will be very happy, guess we have to start with 1.

I imagine! Day and night!!

 

J'imagine aussi, un peu plus loin à l'est, le nouveau CHUM qui remplacera la bâtisse jaune moche actuelle, et aussi (hope, hope!) le coin du Chinatown enfin rempli par quelque chose d'un peu haut. Fantasme, quand tu nous tiens!

 

C'est VRAIMENT mon angle préféré dans ce projet!!!

Well, you'll have tolive up to 200 years old for that, probably.

I was hoping more by 2060, guess if I have to live until 2210 so be it.

Well, at the recent rate of slightly less than 1 building of 120m+ being built per year in Montreal, we'd have 100 more in 100 years. However, I think the shift towards sustainability, transit and smart growth/new urbanism/transit oriented development... we may see that rate increase significantly. I'd even go so far as to suggest a rate of ~3-5 buildings of 120m+/year by 2025.

 

We have no shortage of tall buildings proposed right now... in fact we currently have 7 buildings of 120m or more that are currently proposed, approved or under construction!! (Altitude, Altoria, Marriott, Square Phillips, Place University, Cité phase II, Hilton)

 

Plus in the 100m+ range we have the Waldorf, 900 Maisonneuve too.

Hello,

 

I work in travel and last week I sent the rep for the courtyard Marriott in Quebec an email about if she knew anything on this... and today this was her reply :

 

''I am sorry…nothing as been confirmed yet….''

 

Wonder how we should interprid this ???

 

I gues the confirmation still did not reach her

They're driving beams into the ground for excavation... it's clearly under construction.

 

So i guess she's just unaware. Can we really be surprised? This whole project has been hush-hush from the get-go. We'd only now be finding out about it had it not been for Gilbert!

[pedepy]

est-ce que les trois autres projets de leur section "en progres" sont aussi en construction ?

 

"en progres", c'est un traduction un peu batarde de l'anglais "in progress" - autrement dit, ca veux pas dire grand chose ....
