Phase One to demolish the former CBC headquarters will last until next spring

The demolition of the former CBC headquarters in Montreal has begun, with phase one expected to last until next spring. Work includes removing asbestos, dismantling various structures, and clearing the site for redevelopment. The project aims to revitalize the area by creating a mixed-use space with residential, commercial, and public facilities. Concerns about preserving the historical significance of the site have been addressed, with plans to integrate parts of the building's facade into the new development. This initiative is part of a broader effort to modernize the neighborhood while respecting its heritage.
