Just what we need: more big box stores! Thankfully underground, and with 2000 parking spaces, so nobody has to walk 5 minutes from one of the two metro stations.

I also am weary of that amount of parking, but you have to consider it in the context of the amount of density on top of it.
They say they are building 4000 residential units, 3 office towers and 60+ retail units.
For that amount of use, 2000 spots is not too crazy.
0.5 spots per residential units alone is pretty great. But along with the rest that parking will not go far. The metro stations will see plenty of use.

The thing that irritates me most about this is the idea that it “revives the Faubourg à m’lasse.” This will be more glitzy unaffordable condos, rather than the down-at-heel but affordable living spaces that were razed to assuage Jean Drapeau’s slumophobia and build the Maison Radio-Canada.
Faiz Imam, do you mean weary? Or do you mean wary?

heh. I meant wary, but both work don’t they?

That isn’t very much new parking.
Molson owns several (4?) lots in the area that already have about 1,000 spots, and has been renting out space to other companies for decades.
