Montreal of the future: highrises, trams and football
A study from the Société du Havre suggests the demolition of the Bonaventure expressway to clear more room for development, basically meaning lots of condo and office highrises around what's now considered Griffintown. Another new route is also being proposed for the theoretical tram that would solve every possible transit woe downtown, from getting tourists to Old Montreal and the Quartier Latin to bringing patients to the new CHUM hospital and serving neo-Griffintown as described above. Is there anything it can't do? Eventually it will even go up Avenue Robert-Bourassa and bring people to the newly enlarged Molson Stadium for an Alouettes game: there will be no referendum on this, as opposition to the plan did not succeed in signing up enough names requesting one. |
