  • 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.
