The architecture of the linear wooden building

Also takes up the language of the neighbourhood. The building has been segmented into three spaces, separated by terraces and largely fenestrated, analogous to the shop windows that line the Place des Festivals. The ground floor has completely retractable glass walls that open onto the Esplanade during the summer months, thus expanding the various activities available – such as the restaurant – to the outside. Upstairs, relaxation areas have been created that benefit from the warm tones of the wood and offer a view of the Esplanade. A large warehouse in the basement, instead, allows to store all the urban furniture and equipment used to organise various events in the Quartier des Spectacles, making the new architecture a truly multifunctional space at the service of the local community.

The Esplanade Tranquille, whose name is inspired by the former Tranquille Bookstore, which played a prominent role in contemporary Canada's cultural history, has created a much-needed pedestrian space, particularly Phone Number List in the post-pandemic world, in an area that was previously dominated by vehicle traffic. Overall, we can certainly agree that by creating a new public space that encourages social interaction and cultural exploration, FABG Architects has helped to revitalise the Quartier des Spectacles and to improve the quality of life for both residents and visitors. Because let's not forget that the Quartier des Spectacles plays a key role in promoting social cohesion and community engagement.



Its many events and festivals bring together people from all social backgrounds, creating a sense of shared experience and a common purpose. This, in turn, reinforces the bonds between individuals and promotes a sense of belonging, particularly important in large urban centres, where people can often feel isolated and detached.Congratulations to all the winners and especially to this award format, as a catalyst and observatory of the new challenges that the globalisation of contemporary architecture adds to the conservation and intervention on our building heritage.After the show, visitors are invited to participate in a laboratory where they are offered a range of activities for all ages.
