BOISBRIAND URBAN VISION
The Boisbriand community downtown redevelopment project aims to create a dynamic, attractive, and safe space, focusing on identity, mobility, and sustainable development. Three distinct sectors will be developed: the events sector, incorporating an outdoor gathering space in Derek-Aucoin Park; the sports and recreation sector, bringing together various sports facilities around the arena; and the community sector, housing a multifunctional building for community services. This project aims to reduce heat islands, optimize green spaces, and improve mobility for pedestrians and cyclists, while reflecting community values.

PROJECT FEATURES AND CHALLENGES
The events sector, located in Derek-Aucoin Park, will serve as a gathering place for Boisbriand's festivities, incorporating a natural mound for year-round activities and event facilities. The sports and recreation sector will include facilities such as tennis courts, volleyball courts, and a large baseball diamond, as well as a revitalized arena with artistic facades and a multifunctional wooden structure.
The community sector, located between the arena and the pharmacy, will house community services in a large multifunctional building with underground parking, an extensive library, and a multipurpose room. Outdoor spaces such as a public square will be developed for various activities, contributing to the cohesion and identity of the Boisbriand community.

The facilities are designed to be flexible and accommodate a variety of cultural, sporting, and social activities.
