2016 Award of Merit – Conservation – Architecture

Condominium “Merchants Exchange”

Built for the Merchant’s Bank in 1865, the building was subsequently home to the Montreal Stock Exchange and the newspaper Le Devoir until its conversion into residential condominiums in 2000.

In 2014, DFS was mandated to conserve the Italianate exterior façades including structural stabilization, complete repair and replacement of eroded and fractured stones, repointing of mortar joints and cleaning of masonry.
