Brigil is always quite slow with project starts, but they get there eventually. Canevas was in the "any day now" phase for a few years.

It's a much needed project, I can't wait to see it go up! I do wonder what's better tho, living right next to school in an old building, or having to walk all the way up the hill to get anywhere, but staying in an old building.

The Gatineau tower was shut down by the city years ago, they would have to get a huge exemption for it to go ahead. In the last years they've focused on Canevas, but they did mention they would come up with a new project for their downtown land.

As far as I know, there's no zoning rule that forces/encourages podiums, so developers maximize their lots.

You have the wrong orientation, the tower portion is along Leduc, so the South face is quite slim.

When something is built within zoning they don't need to show much to the public. Groupe Heafey sidestepped a lot of the regular process by getting the zoning for the entire site updated before starting to develop it. They still have a large parcel across rue Saint-Rédempteur to redevelop, so...

According to previous presentations, trains would either share lanes with cars or replace them entirely,

Unfortunately, just a new Kia dealership.

The SUDD is recommending against the demolition of one of the buildings (35-37 rue Kent), I hope the developer can work around it (or convince Council to approve the demolition).

Did you drive by on Wellington by any chance? The grocery store is behind a new street-facing retail unit that is currently unoccupied. It makes it look like a ghost town, but it should definitely be open.

Having Google Maps show the correct location would help... there's also no hours on it for some reason.

Block 7 is approved but on pause until a tenant can be found for the offices. I think they're referring to the supposed residential tower at the corner of Eddy and Laurier, which has been mentioned as their next building going up on the Québec side.

I'm 99% sure nothing was posted for this lot, I've been monitoring!

Now we just need demo to start on the Bâton-Rouge for that stretch to be unrecognizable!

The government wants more space. Asticou is over 250k m2, the previously selected site at Edmonton is around 350k m2, while Carrière is barely 100k. Even if you include the Canadian Tire and everything in between bd Carrière and A5, it's still barely over half the space that Asticou has. Ofc...

I like the optimism, but the new Civic line 2 connection is like 4x shorter than a St-Raymond - Asticou walk, and the Cégeps would be 0.5, 1, and 2km away. It's not really better service if you need to take a bus anyway, not sure you could justify the expense.

I don't disagree with the sentiment, but the Fairview Estate is right there...

This park had such an interesting concept, but it very much looks half finished. The random patches of rip rap, the lack of an access down the main staircase, the lack of plants along the shoreline...

Sounds more like a Claridge thing...

With 2500 units there, Canevas with a couple thousands across the street, the PFK midrise and Bloome, they're gonna double Wrightville's population in a decade!
