Support the redevelopment of buildings that could accommodate new activities, such as the loft-type buildings on Chabanel or those in the vicinity of the Canadian Pacific tracks.
Support the conversion of areas with employment
diversification and intensification potential, notably those in proximity to
metro stations, by consolidating underused sites occupied by obsolete
industrial and commercial buildings, such as:
The Namur and De La Savane metro stations area;
The Canadian Pacific tracks area in the boroughs of Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie and Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension;
The area bordering Jarry and the Autoroute Métropolitaine south of the former Francon quarry in the Borough of Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension.
