The purpose of this studio was to engage with architecture within the context of urban renewal. We pinpointed potential civic assets along Sherbrooke street, the spine of Montreal, and proposed ways to repurpose these sites to meet the changing needs of the city.

This investigation was completed in 3 phases, compiled into 3 books and curated into an exhibition at the “cities we need” conference.

Large & Formal:There are varying size parks along the length of Sherbrooke. Park Lafontaine and Westmount Park are among larger parks that accommo-date a variety of activities, landscapes, waterways, etc. They were intentionally created and designed meticulously with clearly defined programs.

LaFontaine Park was created in 1889. The following year, greenhouses were installed to grow all the flowers for

the city. In the1950s, the central pavilion was constructed, an open-air theater (4000 seats) and a restaurant. Unfortunately, these additions were accompanied by the remissions of the greenhouses. Between 1957 and 1989, a small urban zoo was places in the park and became one of the park’s greatest attractions. Later on, formal programming of the parc led to the creaion of soccer, baseball, hockey, volleyball and pétanque installations. In

addition to the sport facilities, the park is populated with picnic areas, huge trees, a playground, a dog park and a bike path.

Finally, the Théâtre de Verdure offered summertime programs since 1956.

Over time, the large spaces of the park have been programmed for many ac-tivities that provide leisure and comfort for nearby residents.

A public corporation, the STM serves the mobility needs of residents and visitors by offering an efficient public transit system (bus and metro). It thus strengthens the reputation of metro-politan Montréal as an urban centre with a high quality of life and a prosperous economic hub that is respectful of the environment. At the heart of Montréal life since 1966, the metro system counts 68 stations and provides more than 1.3 million passenger trips each day.

Established in 1861 as Montreal City Passenger Railway Company, it has grown to comprise four metro lines with a total of 68 stations, as well as over 186 bus routes and 23 night routes.

The STM operates the fourth most heavily used urban mass transit system in North America, after the New York City Transit Authority, the Mexico City Metro, and the Toronto Transit Com-mission.[2] As of 2011, the average

daily ridership is 2,524,500 passengers: 1,403,700 by bus, 1,111,700 by rapid transit and 9,200 by paratransit service.

Each stop on each route is assigned a number and some of these systems require a user to know the number.

Dawson College

An excellent case of a constantly evolv-ing and improving asset. Furthermore, its identity and physical manifestation changed overtime.

Dawson was originally a satellite campus of McGill, which accommodated the overflow of returning soldiers who sought an education after the Second World War. Its original location was in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu. It was never

tied down to a particular building. It opened another campus in the Old Port in 1970 and a third Campus near Parc Lafontaine in 1972 and a fourth in the Victoria Building on McGill Street in 1975. It became a separate entity 1967 when the CEGEP system was cre-ated. These numerous campuses finally consolidated under one roof in 1997, in the former Mother House of the Notre-Dame Congregation. Numerous extensions were added to the 100 year

old church. New wings from A to F were added around the church, housing the many pre-university and technical programs. It has grown so large that it occupies an entire city block. The original church, hidden amongst the extensions, was repurposed as a large central library. Its dome sores above, creating a firm image to fit the new identity of the institution. Due to the high demand for Anglophone CEGEPs and its strategic location, Dawson

Map of Small vs Large Parks

Small Parks along Sherbrooke

Small & Informal: On the other hand, one can find examples of small and informal parks in NDG that were created from the intersection of Non-Orthogo-nal Sherbrooke with the Grid. Place Charles-Este and Place Guy-Viau are two such examples. They are triangular plots and have no defined programs. They became green spaces because their odd shapes made them arduous for development. However, like any other park, they are populated with

trees, bushes, benches and grass.

They are incredibly useful civic assets appropriated by the people for sitting, eating, reading and resting. You will always see them being used. The small green parks may be more effective at meeting the needs of the people since they create a broad and more accessible network. Large parks may accommodate more people and more activities, but they are often too few

and too far to be effectively used by the population.

continues to grow. It has surpassed all other CEGEPs becoming the largest in Quebec, with 8000 Full-time and 3000 Part-time students.

This asset shows how an asset’s physical manifestation and location can move and morph. Its identity may change, split from its parent and become its own entity. Finally, Dawson shows how an asset’s emergence and growth really depend on the needs of

the city and its citizens. As long as the need grows, so shall the asset.

Loyola High School

Originally part of Concordia university, Loyola High School is another example of how an asset may diverge from its parent and become a distinct entity. Wing Extensions

The extensions were added on the maisonneuve side of the block while maintaining a con-sistency in architectural style.

Green Vacant Lot

This vacant lot is strategically located near Loyola Campus, the Bus Terminal and the Train line. It used to be a park-ing lot but it is closed off and over-grown. Plants, trees and grass have

punched through the Asphalt, gradually reclaiming the land.

This is an asset brimming with poten-tial. It is currently in an intermediary phase of usage (No longer what it used to be but has not yet entered a new development stage). During this phase

of Non-use, it has the opportunity to be appropriated by the public who can use it any way that they want. For example, it may become a community garden. If this civic appropriation is popular enough, it can become the new and permanent use of the space.

Similar sites include the Sherbrooke Overpass above highway 15. This over-pass is large enough to allow activities or installations to be placed here and it is currently fitted with benches, grass

and trees. Its unique location over a highway enables unique uses of the space.

These non-used sites brim with po-tential, free to be molded as needed. Their strategic locations allow them to be appropriated in special ways,

increasing their effectiveness as future civic assets.

Civic Texture and Story: Park Art

interview: BarrettSt Hubert and Sherbrooke

Barrett is a professor of urban-ism at UQAM. We found him in front of his residence, a 15 storey apartment, in which he has been living for 7 years. He frequently walks on Sherbrooke. He walks to his work, and for leisure his boys join him on walks to Parc Lafontaine and Atwater Market. Barrett also navigates the city by bike - he is a cycling enthusiast.

Having grown up in along Sherbrooke near Pie-IX, Barrett notes that Sherbrooke has dramtically changed since he was young.

The Original Empress

Vaudeville show (Top) & Lavish Egyptian inspired interiors (Bottom)

The Rise and Falls - Empress Theatre

Empress Theatre

This building was built in 1927, with an Egyptian art-deco style. It was inspired by the discovery of Tutankhamen’s tomb and sports lush interiors remi-niscing to Egyptian architecture.1 It is unique in North America, a gem in the city. (See Timeline - Following Spread)

Its use shifted considerably. Originally functioning as a vaudeville theatre, then closing in 1939 due to economic problems. It was successfully re-opened in 1962 as a dinner theatre. The interior was gutted and redisgned with a modern look, expressing its new identity (60s).2

Six years later, the Empress became an artistic films cinema called Cinema V. In 1975, the Cinema shifted towards showcasing the Classics. In 1988, it was bought by Famous players and turned into a regular Cinema.

Finally in 1992, a fire destroyed its interior, leading to its closure. It’s life as an entertainment venue had ended.

Since then, there has been desire to restore the building and after many failed attempts, it remains closed to this day. Talia Dorsay was a member of the comity that strived to rehabilitate the building. Even the community got behind the project and supported it. Many proposals were launched to this end, such as a new concert hall, but lack of funding and unwillingness of the City to push forward lead to the failed repurposing of this historic building. There is currently a proposal to turn it back into a cinema. However, this new vision also remains elusive.

In the real world, despite the desire for rehabilitation, other factors may prevent the repurposing of assets. This was an asset that peaked, declined, peaked and declined again. Throughout

the years, it remained as an enter-tainment venue but cycled through different artistic mediums which.

A great deal of time and energy must be expended to restore its value as an asset in the community. This building has been in disuse for over 20 years and this shows just how lengthy and arduous the task might be. In some unfortunate cases, the building might get demolished before the restoration process may occur. Withal, there is still hope. History shows that the theatre was once closed for a period of 23 years before it reopened as a cinema. As long as there is sufficientcommunity support, the Empress may rise from the ashes.

Robery Stanley Bagg House

Devastation & unfortunate circum-stances create new opportunities of reuse that would have never been considered or undertaken otherwise. Creatively taking advantage of these opportunities is another key re-use strategy. The Robert Stanley Bagg house at the corner of Sherbrooke and Cote-des-Neiges is a great example of how a fire in 1982 lead to its con-version from a private residence to a popular Tattoo and Piercing shop called Adrenaline.

Observations were taken be-tween 2 and 4 pm on Tuesday September 24th, 2014.

(interview continued):

In particular, the division between French and English, traditionally seperated by St Laurent, has eased up lately. Barrett identifies the influx of McGill students living further and further east of the campus as a major factor in this shift. He enjoys it.

Barrett encourages us to drop in on the city’s public consultations on Sherbrooke later this month.
