A reference for sustainable urban design
The visionary Bois-Franc residential project has become an urban design reference and an example for sustainable development. Built on the site of a former airport, the community’s abundant parks, ponds, fountains and squares create a distinctive look as well as a vast network of flourishing ecosystems.
Unique street design and architecture, a European-style central square of restaurants and shops, the use of classic materials and rich detailing combine in this signature project that has more than stood the test of time.
