In March 2016, City Council accepted the offer of Max Dubois and sold the building to him in October 2017. Since then, the City has been trying to find a new mission for the old Anglican church. No longer being used, the building was finally put up for sale by its owners in 1998, when it was bought by the Ville de Saint-Lambert. This building was originally home to an Anglican church and was converted into a Masonic temple in 1928. I look forward to seeing this project, which will revive this iconic downtown building, finally take shape," concluded the mayor. "I firmly believe that the realization of this project will benefit the Lambert economy and contribute to the vitality of the downtown area. Once completed, the former Anglican church will house a commercial space, which will also include shared work spaces in a new annex building. Unless the Demolition Committee's decision is opposed within the next 30 days, requiring a new vote by City Council, the developer will have completed all the necessary steps for the realization of the project. This step follows the approval of the Siting and Architectural Integration Plan (SAIP) at the Februmeeting. This achievement will ensure the preservation of the former Anglican church once and for all, and will bring closure to a file that has gone on for too long,” said Mayor Pierre Brodeur. The developer will invest heavily in the building to salvage as many elements as possible and reconstruct as faithful a version of the original as possible while assuring the harmonious integration of this inspirational project for our community. “I am delighted that the project is taking another step forward. Mayor Pierre Brodeur is pleased to announce that the Demolition Committee voted by a majority on May 31 to accept the permit application for the building located at 263 Elm Street, whose deconstruction is part of a major rehabilitation project for the former Anglican church.
