Desjardins expands in Olympic tower
Desjardins, which has people working on seven floors in the renovated Olympic tower, is taking over two more floors of the structure. Item says three additional floors are available to rent, which makes me mildly curious why Quebec is not moving any of its own fonctionnaires in.

Because of it’s tapered shape, the upper floors (the ones available for rent) have much smaller floor plans than the lower floors (already occupied by Desjardins). It doesn’t make much sense to have so little floor space spread out over 3 floors and it’s probably too small for any governmental need.

Good point, Spi.
Wonder what it’s like working in there. There’s not really much around there for an office person’s lunch break.

About 5 times a year, they could get some food truck grub, after work:

But I would hope they have some kind of cafeteria on-site since the closest restaurant cluster is on Ontario street, which is quite a walk for a lunch break.

There is a great little cafe near the rotunda of the stadium complex…Cafe in Vivo https://www.cafeinvivo.ca/. Also, at certain times of year, a quick jaunt up to the Botanical Gardens will get you a really nice meal at the garden restaurant which is accessible without a pass to the gardens. https://espacepourlavie.ca/en/dining-areas
