DISTINCTIVE DESIGN

The true heart of a neighbourhood in full bloom, Espace Montmorency is built around a unique “block design” concept, created to optimize light… and life. Its daring architectural arrangement conceived by Sid Lee Architecture will completely change the landscape of the sector, thanks to their meticulousness and innovation. Through its smart technology, green spaces, and a location that is well-served by public transportation, Espace Montmorency’s construction has allowed us to aspire to LEED Gold certification.

Aspiring to LEED Gold Certification

Espace Montmorency aspires to LEED Gold certification through the integration of automated water management processes and by adopting low-energy-use appliances, among other measures. The use of materials containing recycled content and that were produced locally, in addition to the use of FSC wood, will also contribute to reducing the project’s environmental impact. Furthermore, the site hosting Espace Montmorency is aiming to achieve LEED certification for neighbourhood developments. Espace Montmorency will become a leader in sustainable environmental performance.
