Construction project on the site of the Sulpician’s philosophy seminary

Montreal’s heritage council recommends against the project

Montreal’s heritage council, the Conseil du patrimoine de Montréal (CPM), has recommended against the reuse project presented for the Sulpician’s philosophy seminary located on Côte-des-Neiges Road and Cedar Avenue. The CPM has recommended that modifications be made to the project with regards the density of the construction and the too-high number of parking spaces, as well as the height of the newly proposed construction that would compromise important views. In its current iteration, the CPM states that the project does not conform to the requirements of the Mount Royal Master Protection and Enhancement Plan and will need to be revised and corrected before proceeding to a public consultation. Les amis will continue to follow the dossier.
