Pine/Parc Intersection To Stay GreenPosted 25/Nov/2007 23:20:00 by Gromco The Gazette reported that following the residents' vote on Friday nothing will probably be built on the southern side of Pine/Parc intersection in the next few years and it may eventually be turned into a park. Previous projects included, among other options, a futuristic-looking office tower. Two Sud-Ouest Shootings InvestigatedPosted 09/Oct/2007 15:39:00 by Gromco Residents concerned about the increase in drug- and gang-related violence in Little Burgundy (Borough Sud-Ouest)...

Continue reading: » $400 Million Project Around La Gare Viger St-Denis Fire Destroys L'Barouf, Le ContinentalPosted 23/Jul/2007 23:00:00 by Slavito As I am typing this, a serious fire is still raging on rue St-Denis, destroying what's left of two highly respected establishments of Montreal's dining and nightlife scene, respectively. The unfortunate victims are L'Barouf bar and Le Continental restaurant. The fire started shortly after 7pm at a nearby store and quickly consumed the entire building. The smoke was visible from a few miles away (I noticed it while biking along Lachine canal near Atwater). M9-I Update: Residents Moving InPosted 12/Jul/2007 13:00:00 by Slavito Late June was the delivery date for M9 condos (phase I) and it seems that the developers... well, delivered. I walked by the building in the evening and could clearly see that quite a few apartments are now occupied (my guesstimate would be around 30%-40%) with residents arranging their belongings and enjoying all five of their brand-new kitchen appliances. I was a bit surprised at how bright the light accents on the Prince Street side turned out to be (see photo), but I guess that was part of the deal. McGill Ouest - Phase II updatePosted 11/Jul/2007 00:11:00 by Slavito I recently walked by the construction site of McGill Ouest - Phase II. It seems that they're about half way through in terms of floors - five have been built (only the skeleton, no walls or exterior panels). The building itself, located at the corner of William and King, is practically a mirror image of the Phase I, except apartment layouts will be different. Real Estate Resale Market Alive and KickingPosted 14/Jun/2007 23:45:00 by Gromco For all the talk of the imminent cooling, Montreal's real estate market continues unabated. At least its resale (secondary) component does. The average price of a condo changing hands on the island is now $234,000... Continue reading: » Real Estate Resale Market Alive and Kicking | |||
