Mount Stephen Club Hotel - 11 floors
This design dates from this month.

Development of Mount Stephen Club and Hotel Complex
The project consists of the renovation and extension of the Mount Stephen Club on de la Montagne Street in downtown Montreal. The extension consists of the construction of an 11 storey luxury hotel in behind the Mount Stephen in order to lodge approximately 80 rooms. With new attributes such as a modern kitchen, an underground parking lot of 96 spaces and diverse amenities such as a spa and a fitness centre, the Mount Stephen Club will continue to greet members of the Montreal business community, and so, for generations.
I just noticed the building does not go right up to Mountain street, instead leaving what appears to be a blank wall and a parking lot to linger. Not sure I approve of that.
^ i'm curious about these dots on the back side. looks too small to be windows, so hopefully something else could go on what's left of the parking lot. although installing anything at all (windows, led lighting or otherwise) on a wall destined to be built against seems silly.
sort of casts doubt on the whole set of renders for me.
Here is an interesting proposal for Little Italy. The height is perfect, it boosts the density of the area a bit, while still fitting in. The design is also different enough to make it more interesting than the average smaller project. And there is space for retail at the ground floor. This is how it should be done.
Some updates from Westmount and the western part of Downtown Montreal.
1250 Greene Avenue in Westmount. For a faux historic project, I find this building pretty good so far, and they did a good job making the concrete panels resemble stone. My only complaint is that they should have chosen nicer windows. (my photos)

The Quality Inn on Crescent Street is undergoing a much needed facelift. It's a weird paintjob, but anything is an improvement!
I stayed at that Quality Inn a few months ago and does it ever need work. The rooms have strange angular arches and peeling paint from water damage. The doors to the outside are basically wooden blocks with a latch. I can't say it wasn't clean though. I told myself this place badly needed renos when i was there - glad to see they decided on it.
La Ville ne peut se payer le projet sans l'aide du fédéral et du privé, selon un rapport.
Sans participation du fédéral et sans partenariat avec le privé, le tramway serait trop cher pour Montréal dans l'état actuel de ses finances.
C'est ce qui se dégage d'un rapport rendu public hier par la chambre de commerce du Montréal métropolitain (CCMM).
Le Groupe de réflexion sur le financement du tramway formé par la CCMM a fait ses calculs sur la base d'un projet d'une ligne de tramway de 13,4 km dans l'axe Côte-des-Neiges avec une boucle au centre-ville et deux branches vers des zones ayant des terrains en friche. Un projet évalué à 1,165 milliard et à 76 millions le kilomètre.
Une telle ligne pourrait transporter 70 000 personnes par jour, contre les 40 000 actuelles qui transitent par autobus dans le même axe.
C'est le temps que Montreal arrête de penser de cette façon et d'arrêter de dépendre sur des subventions du fédéral (et du provincial). Notre tramway et notre ville en général ne sont pas des grande priorités pour les politiciens a Ottawa et Quebec. Ou est le secteur privé? OU sont SNC, Bombardier et compagnie?
