New study, good to compare it to last years numbers. Workers going back to downtown down 3.5% compared to January 2020.

Downtown foot traffic up more than threefold since start of 2021, study shows

GWLRA finds success with upscale Livmore multires banner

46-floor tower is expected to start next year, will be the largest one to go up next year in downtown (excluding the ones currently going up). A few others are expected to go up, all residential. No office as of yet considering the current situation, but residential is still strong, lots of demand.

Of the current 200 metre crop going up, the National Bank HQ one unfortunately got a few floors cut down (they went for larger floorplates). It's about 190-195 metres, but the garden is now on the 38th floor instead of 40th, down 10 metres. The other projects, all condos/residential, remain the same height wise.

It's going to get chaotic in Montreal, both good and bad. Lots of power will be in the city, lots of money will come to the city, but just prepare for a lot of protests that can *possibly* turn violent.

As expected and nothing surprising, yet another new Marriott brand hotel opening up in downtown Montreal at Place des Arts.

The architecture of this building is rather horrible, but the amenities are pretty insane.

Highlights

-Building is 116.5 metres tall
-7,000 sq ft of meeting/event space (5 conference rooms)
- two restaurants and a cafe (French resto, French cafe, Californian resto/lounge with a rooftop terrace on the 5th floor)
- five terraces overall
- 143 hotel rooms, floors 16-35 are all rental.

My only beef with Montreal is that the city doesn't want to build higher than Mount Royal. I can understand that Montreal is a cosmopolitan city with Catholicism as it's forefront, but it's gotten ridiculous that the city remains stunted in growth while other Canadian cities like Toronto, Calgary, and Edmonton builds skyscraper just about 300 m. The leadership needs to change if Montreal needs to be economically relevant and competitive with the rest of Canada.

I can only hope that Montreal becomes the "crypto capital of Canada" the way Miami is gradually becoming the "crypto capital of America". Both cities offer great nightlife, both cities are building great infrastructure, and both cities are both cosmopolitan. Can only hope Canada doesn't further restrict crypto investors.
