ne of the objectives of the Turcot re-construction project is to unleash the development potential of the space
Orange Line
currently occupied by the Turcot Yards. Coupled with the impending MUHC super-hospital proposal, and within the
context of a highway and rail reconstruction involving about 122 hectares of land, this site is part of one of the larg-
Angrignon
Green Line
est urban regeneration projects in Montreal’s history.
The site presents urban designers with enormous opportunity to be creative and dynamic and grave responsibility to Jolicoeur
Transit Stop design something that will work. Open land without existing architecture to inform design decisions is alluring. This
space, however, is far from a blank slate. It faces an inevitable relationship with massive transportation infrastructure,
Green Space and isolation from, and unique relationships with, its surrounding communities. Monk
