  • Griffintown Golroo Mofarrahi
    Griffintown Golroo Mofarrahi Post-professional graduate program in Cultural Landscapes School of Architecture McGill University August 2009 Report Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master ofArchitecture Golroo Mofarrahi, 2009 Abstract: This study originates from observation that urban neigh bourhoods are in continuous transition as the economy ebbs and flows. Residential neighbour- hoods will either collapse or redlined for new development as their residents start to move out (The Lure of the Local, 202). At the same time, coun- try towns are being abandoned, working class neighbourhoods are further ghettoized and steel towns are rusting in decay as “deserted downtowns con- trast with exurban building booms” (The Lure of the Local, 202). An example of this type of neighbourhood is Griffintown, which was once a working class neighbourhood squeezed between Saint Gabriel farm and the suburbs of Recollets and Victoria town in Montreal. Griffintown was an industrial and residential district. It was urbanised in the 19th century and gradually decayed through the 20th century. As an industrial district it saw the birth of very first large factories of Canada and was known as the industrial heartland of Canada. The area was of great interest to most developers, and various projects have been proposed for this area. This report addresses the follow­ ing question: How does the extent artefact system in Griffintown represent tangible evidence of the way of life before forced resettlement, and are there any artefacts worth preserving in Griffintown, an area slated for imminent development? I Résumé: Cette étude trouve son origine dans la notion selon laquelle les quartiers ur- bains sont engagés dans un cycle de croissance et de déclin soumis aux aléas de la conjoncture économique.

  • 2015 Annual Report
    2015 ANNUAL REPORT MISSION AND VISION Heritage Montreal has worked to promote and to protect the architectural, historic, natural and cultural heritage of Greater Montreal, its neighbourhoods and communities. This private non- profit organization is at the heart of an extensive network of partners, working through education and representation to celebrate, develop and preserve Montreal’s identity and uniqueness. McGill College © Jean-François Séguin, photographer Séguin, © Jean-François Avenue 2015 ANNUAL REPORT | HERITAGE MONTREAL 1 MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT It is now four decades since Heritage Montreal began raising Montrealers’ awareness of the importance of safeguarding and enhancing their urban heritage, and accompanying them on explorations of our city. With celebrations marking our 40th anniversary held throughout the year, 2015 provided opportunities for us to assert more forcefully than ever our collaborative and strategic- action role vis-à-vis elected officials, the media, and members of the Greater Montreal community. While some files had very unfortunate outcomes—for example, the elimination of the vestiges of the former tanneries settlement in Saint-Henri—others were more successful, such as Maison Alcan and the Square Viger project, thanks to the productive actions of Heritage Montreal, among others. As has been the case since the founding of the organization, we will remain vigilant and spare no effort to ensure that heritage value and intelligent land use are considered integral to our city’s identity as well as its social, economic and cultural development. We engaged in many and varied projects during the past year, including the unveiling of our new digital H-MTL platform.

  • 5.0. Community Architecture in Montreal
    5.0. Community Architecture In Montreal The main focus of the last chapter was to present the evolution of community participation in architecture at a global scale. However, since the case study project of this research report is situated in the city of Montréal, Canada, it is also important to present a more local perspective of community-based architecture. The following text accounts the significant events in the history of Montréal that fortified the concept of community participation in architecture in the city. 5.1. The Milton-Park Project At the beginning of this research, one of the main reasons for selecting a project based in Montréal was the feasibility factor due to my location in this city. However, what I did not know at that time was how Montréal has had an active history of community-based initiatives in architecture. One such example and probably the most successful is that of my very neighborhood, popularly known as the McGill Ghetto, located next to the McGill University. The neighborhood is formally known as the Milton-Park area and comprises about eight blocks, which were the “battleground” between the community members residing in this area and a private developer from 1968 to 1983 (Helman 9, 13). Claire Helman in her book, The Milton-Park Affair: Canada’s Largest Citizen-Developer Confrontation, gives a step- by-step account of the efforts of the residents who were involved in a fight to protect their houses and neighborhood from the fate of destruction. In 1860s, the 53 development of the Milton-Park area began with the construction of a new Hotel- Dieu.

  • Rigaud City Hall
    Rigaud City Hall Construction was recently completed on Rigaud City Hall, a new civic administration facility for a small Quebec community fifty kilometres west of Montreal. Located at the confluence of the Rigaud and Ottawa rivers, Rigaud is noted for its natural attractions and historic village center which dates back to New France. Designed by Affleck de la Riva Architects, the project gives new meaning to public administration and municipal activities in Rigaud through an urban redevelopment plan that proposes both the reorganisation of a section of the historic village center and the new city hall building. A pedestrian promenade connects existing public amenities with new facilities, redevelops several vacant lots and links the heart of the village to the Rigaud River. White on White: Democracy and Transparency While Rigaud City Hall is a modest building respectful of the scale of its municipality, it projects a strong civic image. Accessible and close to the ground, in dialogue with both the citizen and its territory, the new city hall symbolizes community, pride and participation in collective life. The architecture of the new city hall alludes to the archetype of the classical temple whose form is associated with the birth of democracy. White on white, the building evokes clarity, honesty and freedom of expression - values essential to the proper functioning of civil society. Luminous and unadorned, the building blends into the northern landscape of the Ottawa Valley. The council chamber is suspended above the plaza and main entrance to the city hall creating a signal highly visible from neighbouring streets. Fully glazed on three facades, the chamber presents the exercise of democracy as a transparent activity.
