Project history
Renovation of exterior facades and refurbishment of offices.
In 2016 and 2017, the Société de Transport de Montréal contracted QMD for two significant projects: the demolition and reconstruction of the facades of a vast 7-storey building at 2000 Berri Street and the renovation of the interior of the same building (a total of 70,000 sq. ft.).

While preserving the existing structure, we rebuilt the entire building envelope at 2000 Berri Street, delivering a more efficient envelope with a limestone and granite curtain wall and sandstone cladding, an innovative material that is both resistant and removable. We installed scaffolding protected by tarpaulins so that the work could be carried out in both summer and winter.

The project’s second phase involved transforming the entire interior of the building by demolishing existing partitions and redesigning interior spaces, as well as installing floor, wall and ceiling coverings. We installed a new generator and a remarkably complex electrical system to meet the customer's needs.

Challenges
  • Restoration of the facades while preserving the existing structure.
  • Redesign of the entire building interior.
  • Work adjacent to occupied STM offices in a high-traffic area without disturbing employees or visitors.
