Competition

McGill College, Reinventing the Avenue

Location. Avenue McGill College, Montréal, Canada.

Description. The project aims to develop a new public square by transforming McGill College avenue for pedestrian use. To constitute a diversified landscape and promote an enrichment of biodiversity, a linear park extends continuously along this historic axis. It is bordered by a long winding bench and a generous esplanade. To retain rainwater, a channel takes shape in the roadway. It evolves between the pebbles, a collection of furniture, which offer spaces for intimacy and pause.

Status. Award winner. In development.

Project team. Civiliti with Mandaworks, SNC Lavalin, Udo design and Evoq Architecture.

Role within project. Analysis of existing conditions, concept development, preparation of preliminary sketch, 3D modeling, production of visual documents, budget estimate, coordination of internal team assigned to the project, production management, verification and coordination of documents.
