“This is a good start, but we need to step up our efforts. By working with our partners and investing heavily in housing, we will ensure that everyone has a roof over their heads.”

A new Montreal real estate development called the Haleco project will feature 66 affordable and 40 social housing units.

Mayor Valérie Plante announced today that the project, to be located between downtown, Griffintown, Old Montreal and the edge of the Lachine Canal, will also feature a unique artwork by Marc Séguin and hold LEED Platinum certification, a top designation for green buildings.
