Posted by maZe 9/12/2005 10:27 PM | remove   Actually Nostra, he does'nt live there. He owns the top condo but he rents it FOR FREE to young architects from his original country (Egypt?) so they can study in Montreal for free. Is'nt it nice? Posted by nostra-YOUPPI! 9/13/2005 12:49 PM | remove   ahh interesting, his was the first condo in the project to combine 2 units (4 blocks) Posted by maZe 9/13/2005 5:01 PM | remove   yeah. and it's the condo on the top too! Quite a symbolic. Posted by nostra-YOUPPI! 9/13/2005 5:14 PM | remove   its no longer the biggest, the biggest 4 units (8 blocks) there were pics on some architecture site, quite nice Posted by maZe 9/13/2005 10:59 PM | remove   yeah. McGill did a big project on the restoration of Habitat 67. I think now the biggest unit is 11 blocks. Cause as you may know, current owners all have a first right of buying on neighouring blocks before an owner can put one on sale... And I know it's not the biggest. but it's the one on top. Posted by nostra-YOUPPI! 9/14/2005 2:17 AM | remove   ok, the article i read said that units are always an even number of blocks, could it be 11 units 22 blocks (if so that is huge) Posted by maZe 9/14/2005 6:00 PM | remove   Well, it is huge. I went and visited it some times ago. It's BIG! McGill project still online : http://cac.mcgill.ca/safdie/habitat/ You can see some of the restored ones. The Safdie one is still intact.
