The announcement was made on Monday, October 26, 2026, at the very site of the Loggia Beaubien project, by Caroline Desrochers, Member of Parliament for Trois-Rivières and Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Housing and Infrastructure, on behalf of Minister Gregor Robertson.

Loggia Beaubien will offer 47 affordable homes for families and small households, including 6 reserved for independent people with a physical or intellectual disability. For these homes, the organization works closely with the Montreal Association for the Intellectually Handicapped.

The project is led by Habitations communautaires Loggia, supported by the technical resource group Bâtir son quartier — an organization deeply rooted in Rosemont, which already manages a stock of 308 homes in Montréal. Federal funding amounts to $11 million, and work will be completed in 2027.

The other three supported projects extend the life of community homes that are already occupied.

The Coopérative d'habitation Le Retour à l'école is nearing completion of a major renovation of its heritage building, built in 1929: restoration of the building envelope, window replacement, bathroom renovations, and upgrades to the electrical, plumbing and ventilation systems and the elevator. Federal funding is $3.6 million, plus $423,086 from the cooperative.

The Coopérative d'habitation Le Coteau Vert is undertaking repairs affecting 95 homes, where some 300 residents aged 6 months to 75 live, in a community known for its collective life, family and environmental protection. It receives $1.42 million from the federal government and adds $500,000 of its own funds.

Finally, SHAPEM's Habitations du Trentenaire, four buildings totalling 90 homes in Rosemont–La Petite-Patrie for low- and very low-income households, receives $1.3 million.

Building new homes and repairing existing ones, in the same movement: the delivery of Loggia Beaubien in 2027 will add 47 affordable households in Rosemont, while the renovations will guarantee the quality and durability of community homes that are already occupied.

That is how, project by project, an affordable housing stock rooted in its neighbourhoods is consolidated.
