Rockhill Tenants Collective

Residents of the Rockhill apartments in Montreal

Severity:
Important - greatly affects quality of life
Status:
In progress - the administration acknowledges the issue and is working on it
Problem Description:

There seems to be a divergence in the responses obtained by tenants regarding the works next summer. While the Property Manager indicated to CLR that it would be Building C in 2024, others were told Building B.

However, no formal date has been provided.

Tenants have the right to know at least 3 months in advance in case of major works lasting more than a week, in order to make alternative arrangements during this period when it will be impossible for them to live at home due to noise and dust.

Problem impact:

For now, it is impossible to anticipate the measures to be taken, which could complicate matters and increase the costs of alternative arrangements if a last-minute decision is made, as the date has not yet been set.

Open Questions:
  • What is the decision-making process for choosing when balcony renovations take place?
  • What are the renovation plans for 2024? If not known yet, when will they be known?
  • What are the impact details? For example, is it done floor by floor? Duration on each floor? Decibel levels during the work?
  • Is it different from one building to another?
Next meeting

Monday 9th of September 2024 at 7 PM

In the hall of building C

(next to the stores)

The Collective

Affected by the deterioration of the Rockhill Apartments in Montreal, some tenants began meeting in July 2023 to consider ways to address the situation.

From these meetings emerged the Rockhill Tenants Collective, a spontaneous group dedicated to upholding the rights of residents and the heritage value of this once upscale and avant-garde complex.
