Creating a natural infrastructure to counter extreme heat events in Montreal: the Falaise Ecoterritory Nature Park
FY 2025-26 · 2025-08-26
Summary
This project seeks to create a new 60-hectare urban nature park to mitigate episodes of extreme temperature in Montréal. The development of the park will allow the demineralization of a vast vacant site and the creation of 30 hectares of natural environments of high ecological value, in the heart of Montreal. Given the scale and complexity of the project, the creation of the nature park has the potential to become an exemplary project in terms of greening and climate change adaptation in an urban context.

Description (French)
Le projet vise de créer un nouveau parc-nature urbain afin de contrer les épisodes de température extrême. Le développement du parc permettra la déminéralisation d’un vaste site vacant et la création de 30 hectares de milieux naturels à haute valeur écologique, en plein cœur de Montréal. Par l’ampleur et la complexité du projet, la création du parc-nature a le potentiel de devenir un projet exemplaire en matière de verdissement et d’adaptation aux changements climatiques en contexte urbain.
