Sc. en Urbanisme Novembre 2009 © William Luis, 2009 Université de Montréal Faculté des études supérieures Ce mémoire intitulé : INFLUENCE DES STRUCTURES COMMERCIALES DE TYPES LIFESTYLE CENTERS SUR LA CENTRALITÉ DE LEURS RÉGIONS PÉRIPHÉRIQUES : LE CAS DU QUARTIER DIX30 À BROSSARD Présenté par : William Luis A été évalué par un jury composé des personnes suivantes : François Charbonneau Président-rapporteur Daniel Gill Directeur de recherche Isabelle Thomas-Maret Membre du jury I RÉSUMÉ Le commerce a connu à travers le temps de nombreuses évolutions, tant dans sa forme que dans son implantation, passant de grands magasins prestigieux dans le cœur des villes au début du XXe siècle à de grands centres commerciaux à la jonction d’autoroute dans les années 2000. Le lifestyle center est la forme commerciale la plus aboutie, concept américain existant depuis les années 80, il est apparu pour la première fois au Québec en 2006 à Brossard sur la Rive-Sud de Montréal. Ses caractéristiques hors du commun ; une surface de vente de près de 2 000 000 pi² faisant de lui un centre d’envergure supra régional, son agencement de boutiques en plein air regroupé autour d’une rue piétonne ainsi qu’un mix commercial extrêmement varié rompt avec les traditionnels centres commerciaux existants.
