Developments

 

Notre Dame Semi-commercial

Multi-Use Construction featuring 1 commercial unit on the main floor and three (3) 3-bedroom apartments on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Since the building is constructed on the lines of the sidewalk on two sides, the logistics for this project are extremely complex – from underpinning existing stone walls to scaffolding set-ups which accommodate pedestrian traffic.

The redevelopment of one of the most iconic and historically significant buildings in Montreal West.

Cote St Antoine Townhouses

Conversion of an NDG Orphanage into three luxury townhouses. Having been modified from a local Church in the 1950s, this turn of the century building was again transformed and updated into a residential development project. Substantial interior structural changes and high-end finishes have created three modern homes within this historic building.

Harvard – Foundation Replacement

A complete foundation replacement was carried out on this 100-year-old masonry building, requiring careful sequencing and temporary support of the existing structure throughout construction.

Pagnuelo

This project involved the addition of a second floor to a century-old residence in Outremont. A defining characteristic of the home was its curved design, which introduced a unique level of complexity throughout the construction process. Careful planning, precise execution, and extensive custom work were required to accommodate the rounded geometry while preserving the character and architectural integrity of the existing structure
