Project: St-Constant, Quebec, Lafarge Canada
Studies realised in 1991, 2001 and 2002


Description: The Lafarge cement plant at St-Constant, to the south of Montreal, commissioned Medialand to plan the rehabilitation of its phase 1 Quarry and its waste material pile. Site potential and contextual studies identified a possible vocation for the property as a centre for outdoor sports activities that would meet the needs for the local population.

The nature and extent of the site enable a diverse program of activities to be offered. Recreational equipment and facilities could be introduced gradually; a promenade, picnic areas, bicycle paths, cross-country ski trails, look-out points, chalets and parking. Other activities such as diving, ice climbing, archery and dog-sledding could also be accommodated.
