This is where the Children's Hospital used to be, at the border of downtown and Westmount.
The high rise in white was the planned social housing building (which High-Rise Montreal nixed) so now disputes are happening and it could end up in court. The other towers though, had light grey prefab (which changed from brick) while 1111 Atwater was all glass, now the Eastern side is dark grey prefab, while everything else will be glass. So all the fanfare I had for the project when the city approved it is gone and now we have a new block of dark grey prefab high rises.
Mtl has the oportunity to have the nicest skyline in Canada. I hope they don't fill up with ugly condos lie TO and Vancouver.
I'd rather have the tacky seafoam green coloured glass over the dark grey/black prefab going up. Lesser of two evils to be honest lol. I will say the glass towers around the Bell Centre are high quality though!
As long as they don't knock down cleoptras everything will be ok.
Oh it's staying haha, there is a reason why they knocked everything else but Cleo's on their side of the block. Although it is pretty funny to have a government office of 800 employees, a food hall with ~40 restos and possibly a hotel all next door to an iconic strip club. That's the most Montreal thing ever and I love it haha.
Looks like Montreal will be adding more international routes! Looks like routes to Delhi and Cairo will be starting Q2, 2021, with Qatar doing daily to YUL starting next month.
