628 St Jacques simply the
name of the building located at that address, which can
make things much easier for anyone wondering where the
building is. This is actually quite rare as developers
tend to give names to buildings that have more identity
than their address. However since this is a rare
occurence, it has the opposite effect and 628 St Jaques
now seems to roll off the toungue.
Located in
Old Montreal but more specifically in the Financial
district overlooing Square Victoria and right next to
the stock exchange, the 628 St Jacques is the first of
several recent constructions in the neighbourhood. It
adds to the list of prestigious addresses that are
already there such as Altoria, Le Phenix, Le Saint M,
U2, and of course Victoria Sur le Parc.
628 St
Jacques is perhaps a litte more discreet than its more
monolithic brethren (Victoria Sur le Parc) but what it
loses in flamboyance, it more than makes up for in style
and with a timeless facade. Unlike most modern buildings
in the City, 628 St Jaques will age very gracefully. As
such, it is an investment worth investigating.
There are two main sides, the sunnier South facing units
overlook Griffintown and the Multimedia city and even
the river if they are high enough. These are not
glamorous views but they are mostly open and are the
perfect orientation for sunseekers. The other side is
much less sunny but it overlooks Square Victoria and
offers interesting city views. The sunny side is very
nice but if you want to enjoy the uniqueness of this
building, you'll want the Square Victoria side.
The fininishgs are of excellent quality as can be
expected in this price range which is usually close to
$900 a square foot or more. The amenities include an
indoor pool, a terrace, a gym and a lounge/urban chalet.
There is of course an opulent lobby and a doorperson at
the entrance.
