K Designer, Creative Director and Producer Réal Ménard Borough Mayor Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve Matthieu Proulx Lawyer, Sports Columnist and Former Player with the Montréal Alouettes Paul Saint-Jacques Manager – Coordination of the Turcot Project and Former President and CEO of the Palais des congrès de Montréal A word from Lise Bissonnette REIMAGINING THE OLYMPIC PARK When we hear the word “park,” it conjures up images of taking a break from our busy routine, a change of air, a change of pace, having a good time, looking around, relaxing, playing, seeing a different side of life. Parks are tremendously desirable spaces, at the same time both tame and free, visible and imagined. In general, going to the park is something everyone enjoys. Why, then, is Montréal’s huge Olympic Park regarded as such a sad place, when it takes only a few moments spent there for the visitor to want to invent exciting new possibilities for it. It is true that the Olympic Park’s past has made it the subject of clichés and skepti- cism rather than inspiring hope, and is still an obstacle to public reflection on what it can become.
