Lignes de désir, season 1, episode 1

Gérard Beaudet, city planner and full professor at the School of Urban Planning and Landscape Architecture of the Faculty of Environmental Design at the University of Montréal, and Maude Cournoyer-Gendron, PhD student in urban studies at UQAM, discuss the evolution of urban development in Montréal since World War II. From the massive development of suburbs to ​“villagers” wanting to live in the city, can the architecture and city planning hold up to today’s challenges? Have we learned from our past mistakes and what to do with the legacy left behind?
