Urban Construction:
Shaping Tomorrow's Urban Landscape
At Pomerleau, we are passionate about contributing to the transformation, restoration, and enrichment of our urban landscapes.
From residential complexes to commercial buildings and from roads and bridges to public transit systems, we strive to make urban living comfortable, functional, sustainable, and safe.
Using innovative techniques and the latest technologies, we build urban infrastructure that meets today’s needs and also adapts to the needs of tomorrow.
The Urban Ecosystem at a Glance
The world of urban construction encompasses two main types of projects. Both are essential to the proper functioning and synergy of urban landscapes—together, they create a thriving ecosystem.
Urban Development
Including everything from residential developments to commercial centers, urban developments are the heart of urban life, shaping the way people live, work, and interact.
Urban Infrastructure
From roads and bridges to public transit systems—and everything in between—urban infrastructure enables seamless flow and connection between businesses and people.
It is the combination of urban development and infrastructure that forms the foundation of society, shaping economies, cultures, and communities.
Turning Citywide Obstacles into Urban Opportunities
High-Traffic Areas: Managing Safety and Flow
With urban hubs come dense populations and high traffic. We’ve got the experience to manage projects in these dynamic downtown spaces, ensuring efficient traffic management and redirection for maximum safety and minimal disruption.
Minimizing Utility Disruptions
Equally important and challenging is the strategic coordination of logistics to minimize utility disruptions, striving to provide the most continuous service possible for local residents during the construction work.
Complexities of Urban Construction Projects
Like all large-scale projects, urban construction projects come with challenges such as material management, delivery delays, and unpredictable weather. With decades of experience in the construction industry, we excel at planning ahead and crafting creative solutions to tackle these common setbacks—making sure to stay on time and on budget.
Shaping City Life: Construction You Can Count On
As cities evolve, the demand for smart, efficient, and resilient buildings and infrastructure continues to grow.
Our expertise ensures your urban construction projects are designed to meet these evolving demands. By prioritizing energy efficiency and incorporating automation and smart sensors, we create solutions that enhance convenience and integrate seamlessly with future technologies and advancements.
We also leverage the latest technology to make construction efficient, reliable, and transparent—saving time, money, and reducing stress throughout the process. With us, you can expect a smooth construction journey until your build is complete and ready to use.
Sustainable Cities, Safe Communities—By Design
All our urban construction projects are shaped by our dedication to sustainability and safety.
We construct buildings with a focus on recycling and reusing materials, energy efficiency, and surpassing the highest environmental protection standards.
Our construction process prioritizes sustainability, not just in design but also in execution. We always take measures to prevent contamination of water, air, and soil as well as ensure proper material disposal and allocate resources efficiently to minimize waste, reduce our carbon footprint, and optimize budget and time.
On top of that, we make sure to safeguard the safety of workers and local communities by minimizing exposure to hazardous materials, ensuring smooth traffic management, and controlling dust and noise—particularly vital in urban environments.
Building Urban Landmarks: A Legacy of Excellence
With over 60 years in the industry, our construction company knows urban development and infrastructure inside and out. We have done it all—from railway systems and bridges to roads and hospitals, covering a wide range of sectors, including residential and commercial.
One of our signature builds is the Haleco residential and commercial complex in Montreal, featuring eco-friendly materials, smart energy management, and a rooftop garden, and also the Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal (CHUM), which involved the demolition of the old Saint-Luc Hospital and the management of hazardous waste, all while ensuring the continuity of healthcare services.
Another testament to our commitment to sustainability is the ROYALMOUNT in Montreal, which aims to become the largest LEED Gold-certified retail development in Canada with 824,000 square feet of retail space, 44 electric vehicle charging stations, and an energy loop reducing GHG emissions by 93%.
Urban infrastructure is equally vital as the buildings, as seen in our construction of the REM, the 67-km automated Montreal light rail, and the redevelopment of the Highway 20/30 interchange in Quebec which enhanced safety and traffic flow for reduced environmental impact.
