Pedestrianization and embellishment of the Jean-Talon Market!
Several types of interventions are planned to make the market a unique place of meetings and discoveries. The new layout of the spaces designed by the professionals of Îlot 84 includes:
- Marking on the ground at the main entrances to increase security;
- Marking on the ground of the north and south alleys to encourage pedestrians to enter under the canopies;
- Marking on the ground for the embellishment of the central aisle;
- Creation of a relaxation and picnic area with benches and tables in the dining area north of the market (on the sidewalk in front of the mural);
- Installation of an open-air work island with Wi-Fi and electricity from the Ilôts d’Été network with reduced mobility access on Shamrock Square;
- Addition of flower boxes throughout the market and six bins surmounted by road signs;
- Greening of the platforms around the SAQ building;
- Added colorful artistic elements.
This project will take place in several phases of deployment and will be fully finalized by the end of July. We invite you to go and enjoy these spaces between your purchases at the Market!
