THE BOTANICAL GARDEN, MONTREAL

The Botanical Garden, Montreal, 2014

 The reception garden and two main fountains have undergone the first phase with the laying of Avenue pavers over a 25,000 sq. ft. area.

 An outstanding garden

This garden has required yearly repairs. With no guiding principles, the site became a mishmash of diverse materials. This came to an end in 2014! Instead of having concrete, pavers and asphalt, it was decided that concrete pavers would be used to create a uniform layout. Avenue pavers were installed in a manner that evokes the “Art Deco style of the administrative building.”

Lemay+DAA was mandated to upgrade the design at the Botanical Garden. They took inspiration from Henry Teuscher’s original 1937 plans.
