Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ Forges New Partnership to Build Les Haltes du Roi in Trois-Rivières

MONTREAL, Dec. 10, 2012 /CNW Telbec/ - The Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ ("Fonds immobilier") is pleased to announce a new partnership with Constructions René Courchesne for the construction of a 54-unit residential condominium project in the Pointe-du-Lac area of Trois-Rivières.

Located on rue Notre-Dame West, the Les Haltes du Roi development will consist of nine buildings with six well-appointed units each, averaging 1,750 sq. ft. in size. Construction is already underway for the first building, with delivery slated for February 2013.

Les Haltes du Roi residents will enjoy a fabulous view of the Saint Lawrence River, along with cycling paths and walking trails nearby, as well as the Pointe-du-Lac Tonnancour windmill, a tranquil historical site considered one of Québec's architectural gems.

"Trois-Rivières offers great opportunities for condominium projects. Les Haltes du Roi will attract both local residents and former residents looking to retire in their home town, said Normand Bélanger, President and CEO of the Fonds immobilier de solidarité FTQ. We are very pleased to announce this new partnership, which is in keeping with our plan to branch out our investments all across Québec. And what's even better, this project will create or maintain some 100 jobs, most of which will be in the region."
