Densifier sans dénaturer les quartiers montréalais

The article discusses a new urban development plan in Montreal aiming to increase residential density in several neighborhoods. It highlights concerns from residents and urbanists that such densification could lead to a loss of community character, affordable housing, and green spaces. Planners argue that increased density is necessary for economic growth and sustainability. The debate centers around finding a balance between maintaining neighborhood identity and meeting the city's urban development needs. The proposal includes increasing building heights and transforming some residential areas, but there are calls for more inclusive and diverse community engagement in planning.
