About Icône

Béïque Legault Thuot designed the complex, and Wikipedia names Metropolitan Parking Inc. as its promoter. The west tower is 146 m tall; the 27-storey east tower is 107 m and mixes office space with rental units.

Guide Immo says the eighth floor is given over to shared amenities: a saltwater pool, a training room, a sauna, a hot tub and a terrace. SkyriseCities reported a rooftop terrace with a tennis court. The Montreal Gazette described units with hardwood floors, nine-foot ceilings and Poggenpohl kitchens.

Wikipedia counts 358 condos in the west tower; Apartments.com lists 357 units. Google's listing uses postal code H3G 0C7; Apartments.com uses H3G 1Z2.

Icône reviews: the Google rating

Who Icône suits, and who should look elsewhere

A good fit for

Buyers who want a pool-and-terrace building a block from the Bell Centre and Lucien-L'Allier station, at a lower profile than the newest towers.

Look elsewhere if you are

Hockey and concert crowds on game nights would bother you, or you want a building with a strong resident community online to vet it.

Before you buy a divided co-ownership condo in Quebec, ask for the declaration of co-ownership, the syndicate’s financial statements, the contingency fund study, the maintenance log and recent meeting minutes; together they show the syndicate’s finances, special assessments and upcoming repairs. Use the condo fee calculator to check monthly costs and the welcome tax calculator for closing.
