More on the OCPM Lachine report
The only piece I saw before this about the OCPM’s report on the Lachine-Est project talked about building heights, but there’s a lot more in the report on the challenges of turning this once industrial area into a “green” residential district. The decontamination of parts of the site will cost millions.

A professor of mine once opined that you can never re-green an industrial site into a residential or recreational site. He’s been proven wrong time and time again, although there will always be challenges like soil decontamination, which is something I am happy they no longer ignore. Now to get the polluter to pay for it. Because *that* is the hard part.
