Located near the Champ-de-Mars metro station, this project aims to create a green space connecting the metro and Old Montreal, while paying tribute to the memory of Montreal women. The site's central feature, the Mirror of Montreal Women, will be illuminated at night and will bear the names of the 14 victims of the École Polytechnique femicide on one side, and those of seven pioneers of the city, from various fields and eras, on the other.
A job done according to the rules of the art
Forage CBF was commissioned to lay the deep foundations for the project's various structures. Our work included the installation of box piles of various sizes, including 32", 42", 60", 72" and 98". These piles had drilling lengths ranging from 12 to 22 m, with specific technical challenges, including the installation of complex box piles in the Berri ramp of the Ville-Marie autoroute.
