@mtl_stories: A new student residence will be created in downtown Montreal. Nearly 170 units will be developed in a new non-profit student housing project carried out by the social economy enterprise @UTILE . Le Méridien will open at 1635 Saint-Laurent Boulevard, at the corner of Ontario Street. It will be able to accommodate up to 281 students from the start of the 2026 school year. In addition to contributing to the revitalization of this sector of Montreal, the student population will be housed close to educational establishments, public and active transportation networks and essential services. This is excellent news for access to affordable housing for students! #montréal
