The house is a place of great heritage value abandoned since 2011 by the owners, which are real estate developers. They presented several construction projects for condos and townhouses, involving the demolition of existing buildings, projects still refused by the City of Terrebonne. Faced with the refusal of the City, the estate has been on sale for 4 years for an exorbitant price.

A citizens’ house project was presented by a citizens’ committee in 2016, accepted by the City of Terrebonne in 2017 and then set aside by the new municipal administration elected in November 2017. The citizens’ house project would revitalize the site and make it a cultural, community and artistic living space, in continuity with the sculpture workshop “La Bergeronne Inc.” by sculptor Germain Bergeron, who died in 2017 and lived in the house for 40 years.

Following his death, the citizens’ committee wishes, among other things, to create an interpretation center on the sculptor and his work. It is possible to see his works in the streets of the City of L’Assomption, at the Monk metro station (Pic et Pelle) and he is the designer of Don Quixote, long exhibited on the Île des Moulins in Terrebonne and currently in front of the College of L’Assomption.

In 2023, the City of Terrebonne acquired the property and granted it a heritage designation. The municipality expressed its desire to restore and reoccupy the building but did not propose a concrete redevelopment project. In 2024, it announced plans to undertake consolidation work to stabilize the structure. As of 2025, the building remains vacant and awaiting a new use.
