New Residential Project - Le Monastère
Introducing Olymbec's premiere residential project to date: Le Monastère
For the past 120 years, this iconic building located on St-Louis Boulevard will house 27 units. The exterior shell will be preserved to maintain the unique architecture of this historic building. The interior will be completely renovated, keeping some of the original brick walls that make these apartment units special. In addition, higher ceilings will be added. The building will feature modern construction, including an elevator, soundproofing, functional kitchens, security for entrances and sprinklers. Large 3½, 4½ and 5½ units up to 1,500 square feet will be available. The 3½ units will be available for rent starting at $625/month. On the exterior, old paint was removed to allow for the natural shade of the brick to be once again visible as intended by the original construction. New balconies will be constructed, taking care to minimize any visual impact on the project. Both windows and doors will be changed, and exterior finishes will be reconditioned. New parking spaces and landscaping augmenting the beauty of this property will we part of this project. Occupancy is scheduled for July 2011.
This site offers a spectacular view of the town of Trois-Rivères. Located in proximity to all amenities and downtown, this location is ideal for urban tenants. In addition, the century-old trees and the large landscape create a pleasing living environment.
This monastery has a rich history. For over a century, The Sœurs du Précieux Sang have inhabited this property, leaving us memorable souvenirs. These courageous pioneers possessed, among other bread-winning activities, tailoring services from 1950-1960. A community presence, they were always available to listen to their parishioners. The people of Trois-Rivières will never forget them.
