Boulevard Newman plays a key role in the mobility and economy of the borough of LaSalle. It features numerous living environments, a regional commercial hub (Carrefour Angrignon) and a variety of industrial facilities. The area is currently under considerable real estate pressure, which is having an impact on the redevelopment of its surroundings. Moreover, the planned structuring public transit project along the boulevard (Grand Sud-Ouest project) is an opportunity to completely reconfigure the area around the boulevard by better meeting LaSalle residents' needs.

There are many issues at stake: greening and sustainable development, user-friendliness and travel safety, land development and commercial vitality are just some of the concerns.

The Borough wants to reflect together, as a community, on the future of boulevard Newman. The aim is to create an ambitious, inclusive and integrated vision for the redevelopment project.

To do this, the Borough has set up a participatory process to identify the needs and aspirations of the community. The process includes a wide range of activities where residents can obtain information and actively take part in shaping the future of this area.

    This past fall, the participatory process set up by the Borough aimed to find out about the community's needs and aspirations. It included a range of activities during which residents had the opportunity to find out more and play an active role in shaping the future of the Newman sector.

    Many thanks to those who took part in the various stages of the process.

    Online survey - October 17 – November 6, 2024

    Nearly 350 people responded to the survey. The results have enabled us to put forward a vision and development guidelines for the Newman sector.

    Consult the vision and development guidelines for the Newman sector (Vision et les orientations d'aménagement du secteur Newman).

    Virtual public workshop – November 13, 2024

    At this workshop, the participants had the chance to learn more about the development project for the Newman sector. Two proposed options were presented to stimulate discussion. Residents were able to voice their impressions, ask questions and share their ideas and concerns.

    Were you unable to attend? Consult the presentation given during that evening.

    Open House – November 18, 2024

    LaSalle residents were invited to an Open House at the L'Octogone library to learn more about the Newman project. They had the opportunity to discuss the proposed development options with representatives of the Borough and the Lemay firm.

    A summary report on the participatory process will be published shortly. Keep an eye out for it!
