A major renovation / construction project on Museum ave.. These old mansions are being renovated and retrofitted in a new project, which includes a set of new townhouses to be built at the back of these properties. You can view everything here. An addition built between the two mansions was demolished (you can see the outline of it in the photo below). Everyone is getting into these mega real estate projects.

Get used to it Montreal. I moved to Vancouver from Montreal in 97 and have watched this quiet city by the sea transformed beyond all recognition in the last few years. Foreign cash ( China) has resulted in real estate becoming a play thing for foreigners with too much money and a need for a place to hide it. I'm sure that they have got Montreal in their sights as a great place to invest as the land prices are a fraction of Toronto and Vancouver. Unless Canadians wake up to this menace I'm afraid Montrealers will fall victim to the same disaster we are currently experiencing in Vancouver.
