Peer-to-peer digital content sharing for construction and building professionals

This week’s featured video by Pomerleau Construction showcases the remarkable redevelopment of the Oratoire Saint-Joseph, Montreal’s largest religious building. Pomerleau led the ambitious transformation, blending historical preservation with innovative design. The project includes a new 5,814 m² pavilion housing a restaurant, boutique, and visitor space, and a striking glass campanile containing 62 bells—the only carillon of its kind in Quebec. This sonic and architectural marvel resonates throughout the site, complementing the meticulously restored pilgrimage stairs crafted from red cedar and granite. Pomerleau also prioritized sustainability, targeting LEED Silver certification with green roofs, rainwater systems, and eco-friendly materials. Accessibility was enhanced with redesigned parking and inclusive pathways. A key technical feat was the installation of a massive cross-laminated timber ceiling, involving 74 precision-placed panels weighing 44,000 kg. Coordinating the arrival and placement of the bells from France added further complexity. Through strategic collaboration with the Oratoire, Pomerleau ensured that modernization respected the site's sacred character while enhancing visitor experience.
