Odea Montreal, a cultural diversity project launched in 2021, has been officially inaugurated. The project is a collaboration between CREECO, the parent company of Eeyou Eenou Realty Properties Inc (EERP), Cogir Immobilier, and several key players, including Lemay, world-renowned Indigenous architect Douglas Cardinal, and ACTAD for the interior design. Located between Old Montreal and Griffintown, on a site owned by the James Bay Crees since 1995, Odea Montreal symbolizes the Crees’ commitment to community development and the revitalization of this iconic neighborhood. Currently, 156 of the 245 residential units are occupied, leaving 89 rental units and 45 units still available for sale.Odea Montréal is located at the gateway to Montreal, at the crossroads of Griffintown, Old Montreal, and the Cité du Multimédia. With its 26 floors of 367 rental apartments, 68 condominiums, and office and retail space, Odea Montréal attracts a diverse population, from students to retirees to young professionals.
“Odea Montreal stands as a testament to the vision and strength of our people. As we continue to expand our presence in key economic sectors, this project represents a pivotal achievement in our ongoing efforts to create lasting value for our communities. It is not just a building; it is a symbol of our commitment to sustainable growth, cultural pride, and the economic empowerment of the Cree Nation,” said Derrick Neeposh, President of the Cree Regional Economic Enterprises Company (CREECO). “Our partnership with Cogir Immobilier in bringing this vision to life marks a new chapter in our journey toward self-sufficiency and resilience.”
