    Downtown Montreal: A Major Metropolitan Development Issue Brief of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal Concerning the Vocation of Downtown Montreal Commission du développement économique et du Centre des affaires September 2003 A brief description of the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal The Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal boasts some 7,000 members. Its primary mission is to represent the interests of the Greater Montreal business community and to play an active and responsible role in promoting the economic development of the urban agglomeration. Bolstered by its three specialized service branches (Info entreprises, the Electronic Commerce Institute and World Trade Centre Montréal) serving merchants and businesses of all sizes across Quebec, the Board of Trade is the largest private organization in Quebec dedicated to economic development. Introduction Strategic planning for downtown development: a critical issue for the economic development of metropolitan Montreal The Board of Trade is pleased to respond to the invitation of the Commission du développement économique et du Centre des affaires to share its thoughts and outlook on the development of Montreal’s Business district. Given that over the next few months the City will be working on a “strategic plan for bsiness district development,” the Board of Trade believes that holding a preliminary brainstorming session on the issues pertaining to this sector is very relevant indeed. In this vein, the Board of Trade is presenting in this brief its initial reflections, which it deems important for the future of Montreal’s core, i.e. both the downtown and the business district. That said, the Board of Trade would also like to underscore the tremendous importance it places on the need for a strategic development plan for Montreal’s core.

  • 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.

  • Final Solution to Montreal Location the Location Is Place Ville Marie Plaza by John Murray
    Final Solution to Montreal Location The location is Place Ville Marie Plaza By John Murray This is the image for October and the immigration reference is to the Netherlands. This image is linked to Verse 2 and a casque in Montreal, Canada. I am writing what I believe to be the complete solution to the Montreal treasure hunt as I feel the solution that I am proposing solves the mystery which has been going on for the past 35 years. I do not have the treasure casque and I believe it was destroyed many years ago. I have recently discovered that the Place Ville Marie Plaza began extensive renovation on January 8th 2018 and will be spending over $200 million dollars which will be demolishing and completely remodeling the plaza. I have contacted the Building owners and also spoke to one of the foreman’s of the contractors hired for the renovations. They have assured me if something is there they will gladly hand it over. I also unfortunately discovered by the owners that another renovation occurred 30 years ago which would make it about 5 years after the Casque was supposedly buried. The Plaza is situated on a concrete slab which acts as the roof of the mall and underground parking lot. In 1962 the plaza was left as concrete as you will see below in some older black and white pictures. Later in the late 70`s early 80`s the plaza was turned into a green park with trees and flowers but for this transformation a tremendous amount of dirt had to be added on top of the already existing concrete which over time added too much stress and weight creating the possibility of a roof collapse on the mall and underground parking lot.

OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITIES OVERVIEW OF ACTIVITIES Objective These activities will allow students to discover Montreal’s rich heritage. The goal is to raise their awareness of urban heritage, its important role in collective memory, and how it is sometimes vulnerable. The students will be invited to reflect on and discuss the importance of protecting urban heritage, of conserving these testaments to the history of Montreal, and preserving the memories they embody. This teaching resource is aimed to help students develop an awareness for the need to preserve Montreal’s unique and diverse architectural buildings and landscapes, at the level of the neighbourhood. The Oxford Dictionary defines neighbourhood as: “A district or community within a town or city; the area surrounding a particular place, person, or object; neighbourly feeling or conduct.” While a particular neigbourhood may be defined by its geography, it is also true that a neighbourhood can be defined by a sense of belonging by the people who live there.
