OUR PLAN


A PLACE FOR ALL

The Foundation undertook extensive consultations between 2017 and 2020 with the
Ville de Montreal, Hydro-Quebec, the Southwest Borough, consulting firms, and
other interested parties to arrive at a preliminary design for the memorial park
that was unanimously accepted by all. More recently in 2024, the Foundation
engaged the services of award-winning architectural firm Lemay to create
comprehensive plans for the site. These plans will be released by the end of the
year, subscribe to our newsletter to stay updated.

The Irish Monument Park will commemorate the Irish who lost their lives at the
fever sheds of Point-Saint-Charles in Montreal in the aftermath of the Famine.
It will be a sanctuary to protect the sacred ground and the 6,000 souls who lie
there and will pay tribute to the many Montrealers who came to their aid.



A place of profound significance, the park will provide a gathering place for
the local Irish community, a site of pilgrimage for the global Irish diaspora
and an important memorial to visit for those interested in this chapter of
Montreal’s and Quebec’s history.

We expect to be able to fully complete the final designs and models by late
2024.

Construction on the park will begin in 2027 once the Hydro-Quebec sub-station is
completed (2024) and the Ville de Montreal redirects Bridge Street and
repurposes la rue des Irlandais (2027).

LETTERS OF SUPPORT



“I think it’s a story that demonstrates some of the values of Montreal — that
solidarity, generosity, welcoming of new arrival, the immigrants to Montreal.
It’s a beautiful story to tell. It’s an important story,”

“This isn’t only Irish history, it’s the history of all people of Montreal. It’s
big Quebec history, big Canadian history, and could be considered big North
American history because so many Americans have Irish heritage and many of them
came through this area.”

Fergus Keyes

President, Montreal Irish Monument Park Foundation
