Kevric transforms Montreal landmark into sustainable smart building

Under the direction of Kevric president Sébastien Hylands, the project is a sweeping transformation of a 40-year-old landmark into a state-of-the-art office tower incorporating the highest standards for energy efficiency and smart technology.

As a result, the building - which will see CN move its headquarters there and occupy 18 of its 28 storeys - is to become a gleaming new carbon-neutral exemplar for the rest of Canada.

Located in the heart of Montreal's downtown business district, a few hundred meters north of Quartier International, Kevric's reimagining of the 600 DLG tower will provide CN with what the developer describes as a "state-of-the-art, performance-focused work environment."

The new CN headquarters will take its place among the offices of other major international organizations and feature the CN logo, marking another important step forward in the renewal of the city's urban core.

Work on the project is also being supported by a green loan provided by the building's former owner and principal occupant, the National Bank.
