The Lachine Canal 4.0 is a business district southwest of downtown Montreal, at the intersection of three highways, easily accessible by public transit or bike, and close to the neighbourhoods where your future employees live.

Above all, it is an ecosystem of people who innovate, collaborate, and drive progress.

It’s a hub brimming with business opportunities, featuring 6 million square feet of space to be developed into bright office spaces, production-ready workshops, and spaces designed for creating, manufacturing, and delivering:

  • unique architecture and industrial heritage
  • soaring ceilings, brick walls, and wood that speak to the long history of the sector
  • in a delightful neighbourhood with green spaces, lively cafés, vibrant restaurants, and local shops.     

The Lachine Canal 4.0 is a Metropolitan Innovation Zone. It is, therefore, a vision—that of a great place to live and work.
