The mysterious aspect of this project appealed to the jury. An object lies on top of the expressway trench, lending itself to a diversity of functions. The structure is defined by shapes found in the glassworks by Marcelle Ferron. Its rounded forms define a public square that is organic, partially covered and highly versatile. The clear and inspired text drew members’ attention.
