Total redesign (October 2023)
Groupe Heafey (11421247 Canada Inc.) has updated it's proposed development of Everest Peaks, at 1740-1760 St-Laurent Boulevard, which includes four (4) high-rise apartment buildings which range in height from 13 to 20 storeys. The development is proposed to be accessed from St. Laurent Boulevard, extending Everest Private from the west. This access entrance will be upgraded to a full movement access with a traffic signal control as part of the right-of-way works contemplated for this development. Bollards placed within Everest Private west of the subject lands will segment vehicular traffic, with access to the proposed development limited from St. Laurent Boulevard. A hydro easement is located along the northern and eastern edge of the property.
The following changes have been made to the originally proposed redevelopment of the lands in response to the comments
received from the technical review and feedback from public engagement events:

Bollards placed within Everest Private west of the subject lands will segment vehicular traffic, with access to the proposed development limited from St. Laurent Boulevard. A hydro easement is located along the northern and eastern edge of the property.
The following changes have been made to the originally proposed redevelopment of the lands in response to the comments
received from the technical review and feedback from public engagement events:
- Building height: proposed building heights have been increased from 12 and 15 to 13 and 20 storeys;
- Building design: the buildings have been redesigned; changes are outlined in the Design Brief prepared by PMA Architects;
- The parkspace has been redesigned to increase its visibility from St. Laurent Boulevard and Tower 3 has been redesigned to create a pass-through facing St. Laurent Boulevard to provide a secondary entrance to the parkspace;
- Interior garden amenity spaces have been redesigned so that they are framed by Towers 2 and 4 and separated from at-grade parking spaces by these two buildings;
- Building footprints have been adjusted, such as by including a pass-through in Tower 3 to the park, shortening the ‘L’-shaped portion of Tower 4, adding an ‘L’ shape to Tower 2, and re-orienting Tower 1;
- At-grade parking spaces have been re-oriented to accommodate changes to the POPS, amenity spaces, and building footprints;
- A sheltered bicycle parking space now separates the POPS from the at-grade parking and makes use of the site’s grade change; and
- Modifications have been made to the points of entrance and egress, including:
- The secondary right-in, right-out entrance has been moved from the south side of the site to the north side of the site to improve visibility to the park;
- The main vehicular entrance has been narrowed; and
- Cycle tracks have been shown on St. Laurent Boulevard per city standards.
