Information on the Target

Hydro-Québec has acquired the former site of the Hôpital de la Miséricorde for CAD 15 million, intending to establish a new electrical substation in downtown Montreal. This significant investment marks the company's commitment to enhancing the city's electrical infrastructure while permanently changing the use of the land adjacent to the Grande Bibliothèque du Québec.
