Vivienda de financiación pública en el siglo XX en Montreal

20th century Canadian architecture is a good example for studying the architectural policies and solutions developed around public housing, especially after World War II. The French-speaking province of Quebec has also developed specific policies that stand out in the federal landscape, with its own institutions that have continued over the last decades maintaining the specific qualities that publicly funded housing possesses. The municipality of Montreal also has a great experience in the field of social housing that began at the end of the 19th century, existing since the sixties of the last century an effective municipal office, especially for the promotion, design, management and maintenance of these homes. The important thing about these policies has been their contribution to the improvement of both access to housing and general housing conditions, with strategies based on traditional housing models, fed, at the same time, by constant research in forms and typologies, without excluding valuable contributions to heritage intervention.
