On September at a glance 23, 1969, Dawson welcomed its first incoming class of 1,655 students and 111 full-time faculty members. For nearly 20 years, Dawson College occupied sometimes as many as 12 campuses spread out across downtown Montreal from Selby Street in the west to De Lorimier in the east. In 1984, extensive renovations were begun to transform a magnificent building that had served as the Mother House of the Congrégation- de-Notre-Dame, a religious order of teaching sisters since 1908, into Dawson College as it is today. In the Fall of 1988, the doors were opened to a new era of Dawson, continuing a tradition of academic excellence, innovation and a vibrant campus life. Dawson is named for Sir John WIlliam Dawson, a renowned geologist, educator and the principal of McGill University in the last half of the 19th century. A heritage site The building Dawson College occupies was declared a heritage site in 1977. This designation means that the College must adhere to strict guidelines when it comes to any construction or modification to the building or grounds, maintenance and improvements, preservation of trees, grasses, plants and shrubs, and ensuring the integrity of the building. After renovations in the 1980s and major expansion extending to de Maisonneuve Blvd. West was completed in the 1990s, the site achieved the limit of allowed sprawl. The theatre and enlarged student area in the Atrium was added in 2007 between two existing wings. The Tony Proudfoot Gym, completed in 1997, was built into the bedrock up to four levels below street level. In 2011, the Dawson Peace Garden was inaugurated on the west grounds. Although the CEGEP system is secular, some religious artefacts have been preserved in the College for their historical significance. In the Library, formerly the chapel of the Mother House, carvings adorn the walls representing the Stations of the Cross, and the light fixtures are made of wood in the shape of crosses. Atop the dome is a statue of Notre-Dame-de-la-Garde depicting the Madonna and Child, which was restored in 2010 to its original beauty after more than 100 years of exposure to the elements of Montreal’s four seasons, including rain and snow, ice and sun, and the effects of freezing and thawing. An urban green space Dawson College occupies a full city block on the western edge of downtown Montreal, extending north to Sherbrooke St. West, south to de Maisonneuve Blvd. West, east to Atwater Ave. and west to Wood Ave. in Westmount. The entire area sits on 12 acres of green space, including trees that date back more than 100 years. The interior space of the College through all its expansions measures more than 1 million square feet or 91,000 square metres. There are approximately 1,500 rooms, including classrooms, laboratories, gyms, offices, meeting rooms, common areas, utility rooms and mechanical and electrical installations. A major upgrade to systems has been conducted over the past few years to increase the potential for energy savings and a far-reaching program of sustainability was introduced to the campus in an effort to eliminate the College’s carbon footprint. The Peace Garden is an ecological zone that encourages biodiversity and reclaims wildlife species long gone from the downtown core, including monarch butterflies and mallard ducks. The Garden, conceived as a memorial space to the events of September 13, 2006, now serves as a living classroom where students across the disciplines benefit from the calming, interactive, aethestic, biological, poetic and

  • REPORT and RECOMMENDATIONS As a Part of a Detailed Planning
    WORKING DOCUMENT REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS as a part of a detailed planning exercise of the Southeast Sector of Westmount July 10, 2018 Report and recommendations - Southeast Sector EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In the latest version of its Planning Programme, amended February 1, 2016, the City of Westmount expressed its will to develop a detailed planning programme for the Southeast Sector of the city. Acting as an interface between the Montreal Borough of Ville-Marie and the rest of the city of Westmount, several major urban transformations have marked the development of the Southeast Sector over the last century, leaving it particularly unstructured and inconsistent with the image of the city of Westmount. First impacted by the extension of Dorchester Boulevard in the 1960s, then by the construction of large urban complexes on Sainte-Catherine Street, and finally by a long and arduous devitalisation process of its commercial arteries, this sector needs to be redefined. Not having the distinctive qualities or characteristics of the city of Westmount nor those of the city centre, the sector is characterized mainly by an extremely diverse built environment (massing, heights, architecture, condition of buildings, etc.) with parking areas and vacant lots. All of this rests on a substantially oversized and impervious arterial system with a quality of public space that is less than desirable. It is within this context that a well-considered and comprehensive urban planning strategy is required for the requalification of this distinct sector to harmonize it with its immediate and surrounding urban environments. Far from wanting to present a formal development proposal for the future of the sector, this report aims at submitting interesting redevelopment options for the Southeast.

The objective of the article is ta proville both a general history of the educational changes in Quebec in the 1960s (and the subse­ quent opening ofthe French-language CEGEPs) and the eventual opening of Dawson College, the first English-language CEGEP, in September 1969.

Mitchell (Department of Anthropology) Departmental Member iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Dr. Alexandrine Boudreault-Fournier (Department of Anthropology) Supervisor Dr. Lisa M. Mitchell (Department of Anthropology) Departmental Member This thesis explores the practices, motivations, and sensorial experiences of Montreal’s metro buskers. By examining the lived experiences of ‘street’ performers in the stations and connecting passageways of Montreal’s underground transit system, I consider what it ‘means’ to be a metro busker from the perspective of the performers. Informed by my ethnographic fieldwork among metro buskers, I detail their performance practices, ‘staging’ strategies, uses of technology, bodily dispositions, and subjective perceptions in relation to the public, each other and the spaces of performance. In the process, I make visible—and audible—the variable and improvisational nature of busking practices, and how these are constituted in relation to the physical features of the performance sites. More broadly, I explore the co-productive relations between body and space, the sensorial experiences and spatial practices of everyday urban life, and the potential for moments of micro-social encounter and appropriations of spaces that are not designed to foster conviviality and creative engagement.

  • Living Campus Case Support
    Reconnecting people, community and Nature CASE FOR SUPPORT © Rosalia Cerro © Samuel Trudelle-Gendron COVER PHOTO: As a student at Dawson, Emilie Usher was a caretaker of the Ecological Peace Garden, member of the student-driven Green Earth Club and helped maintain the rooftop bee colonies. She is now employed maintaining urban honey bee colonies and enjoys educating society about these fascinating creatures. Reconnecting people, community and Nature* * The word Nature was introduced in the 12th century in reference to all of the living and non-living things in the [email protected] universe. A capital “N” was used out of respect and admiration. During the industrial revolution, as humans began advancing the economy through the depletion of Nature’s resources, the word came to be spelled with a lower case “n”, suggesting a reduced status in the collective world view. Living Campus is restoring its status with a capital letter. 1 DAWSON COLLEGE Dawson College is located in the heart of downtown Montreal in a historic build- ing on 12 acres of green space occupying an entire city block. The College’s student population numbers approximately 10,000, with day and evening students enrolled in more than 50 fields of study. It is the largest college (CEGEP) in the province and one of the most attractive, modern and well-equipped colleges in the country. We are a microcosm of the world with many languages, ethnic backgrounds, cultures and religions. Dawson College moved to the former Mother House of the Congrégation de Notre-Dame in 1988, consolidating all its facilities under one roof.

  • Stories of Place: Urban Community and Contested Space in Montreal's Cabot Square
    Stories of Place: Urban Community and Contested Space in Montreal's Cabot Square Sara Breitkreutz A Thesis in The Department of Sociology and Anthropology Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts (Anthropology) at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada i ii ABSTRACT Stories of Place: Urban Community and Contested Space in Montreal's Cabot Square Sara Breitkreutz Cabot Square is a public space in west downtown Montreal. The Square has long been the site of controversy, as it is both a neighbourhood park and a gathering place for people experiencing various forms of homelessness and socio-economic marginalization. In 2008, the City of Montreal's Ville-Marie Borough released an urban planning document called the PPU Quartier des Grands Jardins (Arrondissement 2008), which included provisions to revitalize the Square, along with plans to build a set of condominiums across the street, carried out in 2012. The revitalization of the Square was initiated subsequently in 2014. Fieldwork was conducted between 2012 and 2014 in Cabot Square and the surrounding area in order to understand the ways in which the Square functions as a gathering place, and to learn from the experiences of people who spend time there, as well as the outreach workers and community organizers who support them. Theorizing space and place according to the work of Casey (1997), Massey (1994; 2005), and Ingold (2009; 2011), this thesis tells a story of Cabot Square as a gathering place with processual, relational, and political dimensions. Place is presented as an emergent human experience generated by paths of wayfaring and practices of relationality, and contested by divergent claims to boundaries and belonging.
