Daoust Lestage Lizotte Stecker has introduced its recently concluded third phase of Promenade Samuel-de Champlain, which converted 2.5 kilometers of a previously desolate expanse of highways and rail corridors along the St. Lawrence River into a canvas for a recreational and cultural project.
Phase III, completed fifteen years after the inaugural phase, continues the same design language while evolving to provide enhanced visitor amenities.
The area was previously a barrier for the inhabitants of the city. The transformation of the highway into an urban boulevard, as well as the relocation of railway tracks unlocked roughly 150,000 square metres of land for creating active mobility along the riverfront.

The primary goal of the project was to “return the river to the people”?a social mission and driving force behind the Quebec government’s legacy project for its capital city.
The architectural vision embraced a multidisciplinary approach from all scales, including the master plan, to architectural and landscape design, down to urban furniture and signage.
