Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Montreal Posts: 18,900 MONTREAL | 1000 Rue de la Gauchetiere | 673 FT / 205 M | 51 FLOORS | 1992 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is Montreal's tallest building. It rises to the maximum height allowed by the city. Quote: The (Le) 1000 de La Gauchetière is a skyscraper in the Canadian city of Montreal and the tallest building in the province of Quebec. It is named for its address at 1000 De la Gauchetière Street West in the city's downtown. It rises to the maximum height approved by the city (the elevation of Mount Royal) at 205 m (673 ft) and 51 floors. A popular feature of this building is its atrium which holds a large skating rink. Quote: Inside, the structural core is of concrete, with steel making up the rest of the floorplates. It is serviced by 22 elevators, and its recessed corners allow up to twelve corner offices per floor. In addition to its office space and shopping areas, it includes a full-size indoor skating rink, a physical fitness center, a major bus terminal (the Downtown Terminus) serving RTL city and commuter buses to Longueuil, Brossard and other South Shore communities, and links to other underground city buildings, Central Station and the Bonaventure metro station. This building is the 8th tallest in Canada! http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...-_20050310.jpg http://www.schmap.com/montreal/all_s...ures/30131.jpg http://www.imtl.org/image/big/IMG_2752.jpg http://www.glasssteelandstone.com/Im...auchet-001.jpg http://www.panoramio.com/photos/original/10690977.jpg Nicko999 View Public Profile Find all posts by Nicko999 #2 Posted Sep 18, 2008, 12:01 AM Zerton Ω Join Date: Mar 2002 Location: Chicago Posts: 4,549 hideous __________________ If all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed, if all records told the same tale, then the lie passed into history and became truth. -Orwell Zerton View Public Profile Find all posts by Zerton #3 Posted Sep 19, 2008, 5:49 AM Yasir Registered User Join Date: Mar 2008 Posts: 45 ^^^^^ Completely agree.

Hopefully Montréal will get a new tallest soon. __________________ >> flickr staff View Public Profile Find all posts by staff #5 Posted Sep 30, 2008, 5:04 PM urbino Registered User Join Date: Sep 2008 Posts: 101 1000 de La Gauchetière, Montréal -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The general design is not that bad, seen from far (Mount-Royal lookout or Champlain Bridge). But the building itself is brutal, without any interesting architectural detail (the small domes at each corner are supposed to recall the nearby cathedral's dome.....). I would say that the rear wall, on St-Antoine street, is interesting, given that you forget what stands above. Fortunately, Montréal has nices buildings too, such as the 1250 René-Lévesque, built at the same time, and about as tall. urbino View Public Profile Find all posts by urbino #6 Posted Jun 10, 2009, 6:11 PM Cataclaw Registered User Join Date: Jul 2005 Location: Montreal/Longueuil Posts: 368 A gorgeous skyscraper!

Not the best looking pomo skyscraper, while not terrible, its got its flaws. __________________ https://www.instagram.com/snoopfloyd/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/190455246@N07/ Rico Rommheim View Public Profile Visit Rico Rommheim's homepage!

In a city that has so much stunning architecture, buildings that fall short of the high standard Montreal has historically set stand out like a sore thumb. Montreal should insist on a uniformly high standard or risk losing it's trump card: physical beauty. I'm not sure about this one. __________________ World's First Documented Baseball Game: Beachville, Ontario, June 4th, 1838.

Its not the prettiest looking building, but I find it imposing, which I like.

Kinda reminds me of Fountain Place of Dallas. When I was taking the train into Montreal in 2001, that skyscraper is the one who reached out and grabbed my attention. I was like "Whoa, coolness!" and was suddenly glad of my several hour long layover in town before catching my next train home. Too bad I had no film for my camera __________________ "Build me to the heavens, and Life never stops" "Live as if the world were as it should be, to show it what it can be" -Angel "Prayers are fleeting and wars are forgotten, but what is built endures" -Ambassador DeLenn, Babylon 5 Amanita View Public Profile Find all posts by Amanita #13 Posted Dec 4, 2011, 3:35 PM Marvin15 Registered User Join Date: Dec 2011 Location: Terrebonne Posts: 4 Le 1000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This building sould also be called "Pinte de Lait" or Pint of Milk Marvin15 View Public Profile Find all posts by Marvin15 #14 Posted Dec 4, 2011, 3:39 PM Marvin15 Registered User Join Date: Dec 2011 Location: Terrebonne Posts: 4 Mont-Royal -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How high is Mont-Royal?

Because it is so far down slope compared to some other buildings, this never actually feels like it's the tallest in Montréal unless you are right underneath it. 1250 René-Lévesque always looks taller to me from a distance.

Also, I've never met a commoner (non-SSP, non-skyscraper fan) who knew this was the city's tallest. Either people think its PVM, or they don't know and don't care. __________________ https://www.instagram.com/snoopfloyd/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/190455246@N07/ Rico Rommheim View Public Profile Visit Rico Rommheim's homepage!

Funny how this was true back when you posted this in '08, and now le 1000 is Canada's 11th tallest. Booted out of the top 10. What's worst, is that with TO's (and Calgary's) building boom, le 1000 will only be the 17th tallest in 2-3 years! __________________ https://www.instagram.com/snoopfloyd/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/190455246@N07/ Rico Rommheim View Public Profile Visit Rico Rommheim's homepage!
