Redevelopment of the square around the station into a new public space, on behalf of the City of Montréal
With new green spaces and bicycle racks, the redeveloped square is now a pleasant, people-focused place of connection for public transit users and neighbourhood residents alike.
Located next to the Marc-Favreau library and the Réseau-Vert multi-functional trail, the new space added the last touch to the redevelopment of the site of former municipal workshop buildings. The project also aligns with the sustainable development goals in the City of Montréal’s 2020-2030 Climate Plan and with the Rosemont–La-Petite-Patrie borough’s ecological transition efforts.

What is a waterproofing membrane?
The waterproofing membrane protects the station from water infiltrations. It covers the station’s underground roof and is therefore located underground. Rosemont’s waterproofing membrane dates back to the station’s initial construction and has reached the end of its useful life.
