Following the announcement of the first phase of a 285-unit housing project near René-Lévesque and Primeau boulevards in Châteauguay, a second residential construction project is now underway nearby, at the intersection of Primeau Boulevard and Maxime-Raymond Street.

The project involves the construction of a 65-unit, three-story residential building near Primeau Boulevard and a two-story building beside the existing residences, according to the city.

Extension of Maxime-Raymond Street

In the same area, the City of Châteauguay will extend Maxime-Raymond Street west of Primeau Boulevard. The water, sewer, and storm drain systems will be extended in part to supply the future residential complex at 1000 René-Lévesque Boulevard. The city passed a $600,000 loan by-law city earlier this year for this work.

At the April city council meeting, elected officials authorized the purchase of a parcel of private land to extend the street and infrastructure. The city reached an agreement with the owner for $418,360. “The developer of the project behind the site paid a royalty tax that largely covers those costs,” said Mayor Eric Allard.
