yes, although one more hotel next to the airport is not going to change that. People who are travelling with international flights are still going to want to go directly to Montreal because it’s much cheaper and easier to do the Hotel that connects to YUL, works because Montreal is a busy hub...

really not much of a masterpiece, but it’s one of those things that feels like an “upgrade” for the airport Doubt that people would want to stay here when there’s better hotels downtown, although I suspect that people looking for cheap bookings will want to stay here instead. Will be curious to...

another 20 years of building apartment units, with no commercial tenants to show for it

I believe that while there are some residents here who take the 90 bus line, it’s moreso people who want to stop and pickup food at the Popeyes and/or Mezbaan. The 90 line isn’t really that popular amongst residents here, unless they’re looking to go straight to Billings Bridge on the plus...

Images taken on February 24th 2026 A little bit of progress here and there: siding at the front and back of the building is done, however the side opposite the local highschool doesn’t seem to have been worked on yet, and there’s a few spots here and there where you can still see raw wood and...

haha fair enough. It’s been taking so long that you have to wonder what the development strategy is. Existing units seem to be selling pretty well so far, so I don’t think that it would have to do with a lack of interest/demand- maybe they think that if they build too much at once, the area...

Which is not for another 10-15 years It’s a nice area with a crying lack of retail on-site. These new apartment buildings look decent and are starting to “fill up the space” nicely, but it’s not going to lead to a “thriving neighborhood” when your only retail outlet is a tiny food store with no...

Pictures taken December 18th, 2025 I have pretty big doubts that this site will reopen in 2026. They had scaffolding up along the side a few months back, but it doesn’t look like they’ve done anything to the wall and now the scaffolding along there is gone. Front has some work going on but...

@jay2028 I walked by it earlier today, I have serious doubts that it’ll be opening by the spring (April/May) or even in 2026 for that matter

with all due respect, you might be overestimating how much of an impact that these sites have on the entire neighborhood. Having a war museum and new fancy library is great in an area that has the local population to sustain it. As it stands, people go and visit these sites but can’t be...

might be a good thing actually, if the arena gets built at around the same time that adjacent residential and commercial units get built by the NCC (5-10 years from now). Gives an opportunity for the area to offer an interesting experience right out of the gate, instead of having an arena...

If you check out the brochure for the commercial space (https://buildout.com/sharing/770-BROOKFIELD-ROAD-THE-REVALIE?file=2636817) it indicates that there will be a small pharmacy in one of the new spots. but otherwise the other commercial slots seem to be empty for the time being they’ve been...

the parking garage at Confederation Heights is full nearly every day, so I’m not sure that the number of public servants in the area is an issue. I’ll also see groups of them walking around at noon on some days unless the new development at Confederation Heights comes with some interesting...

Pictures taken on December 10th, 2025 Looks like most of the outside is done, although there’s still a lot of work to be done in some spots. Was able to look inside, and it seems as if some of the rooms are beginning to take shape I do sincerely hope that this new development will help to...

The student apartments at the Revalie buildings are only 322 sqft. 350 is at least somewhat of an improvement

it’s nice, but pretty obvious (based on images shared) that the inside is far from being ready. still lots of work to do, and I suspect that the transfer of books and documentation to the new location is going to take a substantial amount of time as well Looking forward to 2027! lots of...

a hotel in that location might also become very popular with the musicians and bands that perform at Lebreton Flats in the summer months the issue with Zibi is that it’s stuck between Hull (which already has a decent amount of small businesses, and will be getting a tram in the future) and...

with its distance from any kind of public transportation, the prices and the lack of retail (even if there is just 1 floor of commercial space), this development is definitely build for a particular clientele. Not that there's anything wrong with that, necessarily. But it would be nice if they...

As I mentioned in one of the other threads, the Aisle24 stores are only really good for snacks and beverages. If you want real food, then you’re still going to have to drive (or walk) to your local grocery store It’s a nice new development, but they’re definitely going to have to bonify the...

I wouldn't necessarily call this a "15 minute development". I've been living here since they first opened the complex, and I have to drive 20+ minutes just to get my groceries every week; the Aisle24 onsite is very insufficient, unless you want to eat pasta and beans every week. Their beverage...
