This project is part of a project to establish a new campus of the Université de Montréal campus on the Outremont site. It will accommodate up to 3500 people as well as six departments and two research centers. Due to previous contamination the site required a significant decontamination phase. An overpass will be built over a very active railroad in the surrounding area to connect the site with the northern part of the city. The project hoping to achieve a LEED certification.

The project will follow the traditional design-bid-build mode. Since the operator and property manager is also the project client, the emphasis is on compliance with the architectural program and its technical requirements.
