BROSSARD, QC, March 19, 2025 /CNW/ - Groupe Devimco and its partners, the Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ and Fondaction, are proud to announce the launch of Palma Condominiums, an ambitious project exceeding $120 million that promises to redefine the urban landscape of Montreal's South Shore. Located in the heart of the dynamic Solar Uniquartier, Palma Condominiums' bold design stands out from its surroundings with a modern and refined aesthetic featuring graceful curves in pure white monochrome.

This architectural feat reveals undulating balconies on all four distinctive building facades, constituting the project's signature element. With its 313 units spread over 19 floors, Palma Condominiums offers a diverse range of studios, 1- to 3-bedroom condos, and penthouses.

Co-owners will have access to more than 8,000 square feet of common areas designed in shades evoking desert beige tones, refreshing water blue hues, and palm tree greens. These spaces include:

  • An entrance hall with an adjacent area for teleworking and a lounge designed for enjoyment on any occasion;
  • A modern gym offering abundant natural light with views over the park;
  • A spa featuring a dry sauna, thermal shower experience room (whirlpool), hot tub (jacuzzi), and relaxation area;
  • A rooftop terrace complete with a poolside lounging space & BBQ facilities;
  • An urban chalet consisting of two areas: the first with pool tables and a bar, and the second, which can be used for larger gatherings, is equipped with tables, seating and a fireplace;
  • A green roof to help maintain coolness during warm weather conditions.

Palma harmoniously integrates into its natural environment thanks to three surrounding parks, including a community garden. The unobstructed views over the neighbourhood and the Montérégiennes add to the building's visual charm.

Located within walking distance of the Du Quartier station on the Réseau express métropolitain (REM), co-owners will enjoy quick access to downtown Montreal in just 15 minutes, further reinforcing Solar Uniquartier's strategic position as an essential urban hub on the South Shore.

"This project marks an important milestone in the ongoing development of Solar Uniquartier. With Palma Condominiums, Groupe Devimco reaffirms its commitment to architectural innovation while contributing to creating a vibrant community and an active lifestyle. We are confident that this project will redefine the urban experience on the South Shore," stated Laurent Messier, CEO and partner at Groupe Devimco.

"It's a privilege to participate in Solar Uniquartier's development since its inception. This TOD site, connected to the REM, integrates various uses, including residential, commercial, educational, and business. I am convinced that this new phase of condominiums will appeal to buyers for whom real estate is a safe investment," mentioned Martin Raymond, President and CEO of Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ.

The VIP launch is scheduled for spring 2025.
