The future of the Parc
In 2030, Parc Jean-Drapeau is the city's most emblematic park, as well as a sought-after international destination. It is recognized for the diversity and uniqueness of the individual and collective experiences it offers in relation to nature, landscapes, history, culture and sports. It is a laboratory for best practices in sustainable development, a celebration of its heritage, and a source of great pride for Montreal society and Quebec as a whole. It is a committed leader, focused on excellence and innovation, a federator of strategic partnerships and an active member of its community.
By and for
citizens!
This vision for the future, guided by Parc Jean-Drapeau's 2020-2030 Conservation, Design and Development Management Plan, is the result of in-depth work that has enabled us to look to the future, rethink the Parc's overall offer and seize all its assets.
Throughout the development of this Plan, the Société du parc Jean-Drapeau (SPJD) placed great emphasis on consultation, involving representatives of civil society, Montreal municipal services, the Parc's Board of Directors and staff, insular partners, event organizers, sports federations and academics, all of whom were concerned about the Parc's future.
A Parc bigger than
the great outdoors
Over the next 10 years, the Parc and its partners are committed to bringing its rich cultural, natural and built heritage to the general public through the deployment of major rehabilitation and redevelopment projects for its spaces, infrastructures and buildings, as well as the protection of all its heritage for future generations.
Four major projects are at the heart of this endeavor:
- Rehabilitation of the Pavillon Hélène-de-Champlain
- Rehabilitation of the Place des Nations and Lac des Cygnes
- Rehabilitation of the canal gardens
- An immersive and innovative mobility experience
This transformation is in keeping with the immense potential of this large public urban park, and expresses SPJD's commitment to making a sustained contribution to the enhancement of its site, its facilities and its natural, cultural and built heritage.
A promising future
As it celebrates its 150th anniversary, Parc Jean-Drapeau is at a crucial point in its history, reinventing itself to meet the needs of our society and the expectations of Montrealers. Relying on open governance that stimulates commitment and collaboration, Montreal's largest island park is mobilizing to implement a series of actions aimed at achieving its ecological transition, enhancing its rich heritage, and creating vibrant, enriching experiences for its users.
Innovate to stand out, make an organizational shift, listen to citizens and offer distinctive experiences to users from here and abroad: these are the challenges we're taking up to make Île Sainte-Hélène and Île Notre-Dame one of the most emblematic parks on the international scene.
Parc Jean-Drapeau will become an indispensable place in Montréal through open and participative governance, a one-of-a-kind experience for citizens and a diversity of landscape that reflects the aspirations of Montrealers and the transitional needs of our society. How could it be otherwise for a great urban park in the 21st century?
