What are they building there?
My research institute lies at the very end of Royalmount avenue, which is expected to remain a cul-de-sac until 2038 when it will finally be connected to Cavendish. Over the past ten days, our relative isolation has been compounded by a huge construction site a hundred meters to the East, right on the Montreal-Mont Royal border. We’re talking a lot of trucks and a lot of dust.
We can tell from the size of the foundation that this thing is going to be big…but we still have no idea what it’s going to be. Strangely enough there are no big signs proudly announcing the function of the new building nor the identity of it owner. To me, this means that it will probably be bad news.
I used to work at the NRC/BRI and I remember it had pretty nice landscaped grounds. Hope the new building won’t be infringing on the green space.
No we’re ok on that part. They are building across the street next to the Lockeed Martin parking lot.
