École St-George

I strongly believe and recommend that historic institutions like St. Georges should be preserved and, when needed, renovated. Therefore I support this project.

It will enhance the natural beauty of the area near the mountain, since it will increase the volume of green space and reduce the asphalt footprint. The addition of 22 new trees is a significant enhancement to the natural beauty of the grounds.

Since the school is on a prominent corner of the Bouleveard, the visual appeal of the new building will enhance the attractiveness of the area, and should help to increase the property values surrounding it.

I strongly support the St. George's High School renovation project. It will enhance and increase the green areas of the property and diminish the asphalt. As well, the renovations will increase the property value of the site and thereby the value of the surrounding properties. The entire project is predicated on sustainability, both inside and outside of the building which is in keeping with the tenets of a heritage site and is increasingly important in terms of climate change.

I think this is a wonderful project. The building will be greener. The additional trees will be wonderful.

I don't think this will have any negative impact on Mont Royal, especially since all the building will be behind the structure that already exists.

I fully support this new project.

The project looks very attractive - a definite improvement visually, to the existing building. I also think that gaining more green space is really important and a huge bonus for the surrounding community.

As a resident in the area, I wanted to offer my thoughts on the project in hopes that the Office of Public Consultation of Montreal can truly appreciate the benefits of the School's proposal.

We always hope for more green space in the City and this project delivers on this need by creating a green roof adding many trees, reducing the asphalt and heating effect. Students will now be able to connect with nature more easily, In addition, the new expansion of the building is visually more appealing than brick wall it will cover.

Finally, for the neighborhood and for the property values in the area, this project will have a positive impact for all in the surrounding area.

I hope the City of Montreal approves these requests from the School.

Thank you
