Haleco: Reinventing Urban Life in Montreal
In the heart of Montreal, a new symbol of urban innovation rises – Haleco. It’s not just a building; it’s a vision, a way of life in harmony with our environment, redefining what it means to be a sustainable real estate space. Haleco is much more than just a structure; it embodies the values of community, inclusivity, circular economy, and sustainability, while offering a modern and dynamic living environment.
Recipient of the « Reinventing Cities » competition by C40, Haleco offers an urban lifestyle that meets the community’s needs while respecting the planet. Every aspect of this building has been meticulously designed to foster enriching human interaction while reducing our collective ecological footprint.
Located prominently within the vibrant neighborhoods of Griffintown, Cité Multimédia, and Old Montreal, Haleco is committed to redefining sustainable real estate. It is designed to meet the strictest sustainability standards, aiming for LEED Platinum certification, thus ensuring minimal environmental impact while providing superior quality living space.
An exceptional artistic collaboration with Marc Séguin, an iconic figure in Montreal’s art scene, infuses Haleco with a unique artistic soul. A she-wolf, surrounded by a crowd, embodies on Haleco’s façade gathering and universal community. The two circles on two other facades symbolize both the Earth and the Moon, echoing the blades of a windmill that once stood on the site. Every space is imbued with creativity and inspiration, making each corner of the building a work of art in its own right.
Haleco is much more than just a residential space. It is Montreal’s first market to adhere to the principles of a circular economy, thus encouraging responsible consumption and significant waste reduction. With dedicated bike spaces and accessibility via bike lanes, Haleco also promotes a participatory and eco-friendly lifestyle.
Haleco is powered by 100% renewable energy sources, thereby significantly reducing its carbon footprint. Moreover, every detail, from low-flow faucets to Energy Star appliances, has been carefully selected to minimize the impact on the environment.
By creating biodiverse green spaces, Haleco becomes a refuge for wildlife in the heart of the city. These spaces not only offer a peaceful environment for residents but also contribute to strengthening the urban ecosystem as a whole.
Haleco promotes human interaction through collaborative and community spaces, thus fostering a sense of belonging and solidarity among its residents. Regular social events are organized to promote bonds among residents and strengthen the social fabric of the community.
By offering an integrated market, rentable offices, and breathtaking city views, Haleco offers much more than just a place to live – it offers a responsible and sustainable future for generations to come. With its innovative initiatives and commitment to sustainability, Haleco positions itself as a role model in building a greener and more inclusive urban future.
