A residential project by Habitations Trigone in partnership with Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ
Longueuil, October 1, 2019 – Habitations Trigone and its partner, the Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ, today inaugurated theViva-Cité Longueuil residential rental complex. Already 90% rented, Viva-Cité Longueuil consists of two buildings offering 232 apartments of various sizes.
Viva-Cité Longueuil is located in a desirable area and a prime location for the 55+ crowd due to its proximity to the Longueuil-St-Hubert commuter train station, with regular service to Montréal, buses to the Longueuil metro and many services and shops, including a year round public market.
The complex offers its occupants an active lifestyle, with access to an exercise room, a lounge with a pool table, a community kitchen, an outdoor pool and a rooftop terrace with impressive views of Montréal and the region. To simplify their lives, the Viva-Cité concept uses a rent formula that includes Internet, telephone, cable, electricity, air conditioning and household appliances.
“We’re proud to inaugurate Viva-Cité Longueuil today. In this revitalized neighbourhood, we’re welcoming a growing clientele that is drawn to the lifestyle inherent in our all-inclusive Viva-Cité concept,” said Habitations Trigone president Patrice St-Pierre.
“This residential development marks the eleventh Viva-Cité complex built in partnership. In addition to generating positive economic spin-offs for Québec, we’re proud to participate in the growth of a developer who has come up with a housing concept that is so responsive to tenants’ needs,” said Pierre Benoit, Investment Director at the Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ.
