Revitalizing culture
To kick off the revitalization of this new stretch of Saint-Laurent Boulevard, the SDA designed a building devoted to culture on the corner of Sainte-Catherine Street. Here, you can find organizations in the visual arts along with a community radio station. The unique nature of this project lies in the funding model that enabled seven cultural organizations to access the property.
Lighting up downtown
The architecture reflects the contemporary world along with the universe of the performing arts - a flamboyant nod to this emblematic district of the city. The building’s lighting scheme was designed by Moment Factory.
