Congratulations Montreal, you've done it again.



This project has just been stamped as 'too tall' for this section of the city (4 of Canada's tallest skyscrapers stand less than 400m away) due to the sector's 'low density' (the sector is low density due to the large amount of surface parking lots and empty vacated fields surrounding the site). Their solution? It should be 28 floors. So they don't want a 34 floor skyscraper, instead a 28 floor building won't disrupt the integrity of the surface lots.


Bravo. Thank you. Good luck.
