It was the first female missionary community founded in America. They participated in the foundation (1921) of the Society of Foreign Missions, which later offered them land in 1923. &#8220;It was in 1924 that the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception took root on the banks of the rivi\u00e8re des Prairies, on land adjacent to that of the Canadian seminary of the priests of the Foreign Missions. These two societies were the first Canadian foundations dedicated solely to foreign missions.&#8221;&#8221;<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a data-open-side-bar class=\"add-content-link next-arrow\" href=\"#\">Add additionnal information<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"mb-4 mb-md-0 offset-sm-1 col-sm-10 offset-md-1 col-md-4\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slider-ctn\">\n\t\t\t<div data-small-slider class=\"small-slider\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-ctn\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"small-slider-image\" src=\"https:\/\/hmtl.s3.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Screen-Shot-2022-01-26-at-12.25.26.png\" alt=\"slider image\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"image-title \">Fa\u00e7ade principale du Couvent des Soeurs missionnaires de l&#8217;Immacul\u00e9e-Conception<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"caption\">Source: Google Street View, octobre 2020<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-custom-prev material-icons \">keyboard_arrow_left<\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-custom-next material-icons \">keyboard_arrow_right<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/section>\n\n\n\t<section class=\"single-big-col\">\n\t\t<div class=\"container-fluid\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-sm-10 offset-sm-1 col-lg-8 offset-lg-2 col-xl-6 offset-xl-3\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"title\"><\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"subtitle\"><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/donnees.laval.ca\/jeux\/ipa\/JUDE_0100\/JUDE_0100.pdf\">Patri-Arch study<\/a> goes on to describe the site as follows: &#8220;Initially a novitiate, the building was enlarged several times: the fa\u00e7ade was altered in 1926. Then, a fourth floor was added to the first two buildings in 1929. A four-storey wing with a footbridge connecting it to the previous building was built in 1932, followed by the infirmary in 1975, the Val-Marie and Delia-Tetreault pavilions in 1980 and 1985 respectively, and finally the employee cafeteria in 1992. The convent is currently occupied by retired nuns; one of the buildings serves as an infirmary for the sisters of the community. The contractor for the first part of the building was Damien Boileau. This same contractor was hired again for the extension of the building in 1926. In 1929, an additional floor was added. Architect Jos Sawyer designed the plans for the chapel in 1932 while contractor Jules Toralli was responsible for its construction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heritage value of the site<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Also according to Patri-Arch, &#8220;the superior heritage value of this building lies in its history, use, architectural interest, authenticity and context. It houses the motherhouse of the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, which was constructed in 1924 to the designs of architect Jos Sawyer and includes a brick, flat-roofed, wood-paneled chapel (1932), archives and health services. [&#8230;] The complex is composed of several wings, the two main ones of which display a symmetrical Beaux-Arts composition marked by a forebody and an attic, as well as neoclassical ornamentation with pilasters, rounded pediments and projecting cornices. It is located across from the rivi\u00e8re des Prairies and enjoys a quiet, quality environment near the heart of Pont-Viau.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Current context<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This building is located in the heart of the Cartier metro area in Pont-Viau, where a special urban planning program (programme particulier d&#8217;urbanisme, or PPU, in French) has been put in place to transition the neighborhood into a TOD (transit-oriented development) sector. In parallel to this issue, the Missionary Sisters have been trying for some time to sell this building which has become too large and too expensive for their means. With the growing number of condominium projects in the area and the changes related to the conversion of the neighbourhood to TOD, we are concerned about the future of the building, and especially of its vocation.<\/p>\n<p>Last June, the City of Laval offered a budget of $150,000 to the P\u00f4le r\u00e9gional en \u00e9conomie sociale de Laval (PRESL) in order to carry out an exploratory study of the use of the space, but the amount requested by the sisters for their building and the costs of renovation seem too high for the feasibility of PRESL&#8217;s project, which includes social housing and a community services pole. The idea is noble, but Laval organizations do not have sufficient revenues to purchase such a place. There is always the risk that the site will be targeted by real estate developers (if it is not already) for conversion into luxury housing. Pont-Viau, with its social safety net, does not have a population that can live in such facilities, and there is a risk of both an exodus of vulnerable people and the disappearance of a heritage building. Perhaps there is reason to act.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"52\" data-end=\"555\">Around 2023, a nonprofit organization called <em data-start=\"97\" data-end=\"127\">Collectif autour d\u2019une tasse<\/em>, made up of various Laval-based groups, was created with the goal of collaborating and planning a redevelopment project focused on the social economy. This project is supported by the City of Laval, which ultimately acquired the building in 2025. The ambition of the project\u2019s stakeholders is to incorporate social and community housing into the building, along with rental spaces for artists and local nonprofit organizations.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"557\" data-end=\"662\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">As of 2025, the project is still in the planning stage.
