A multidisciplinary jury analyzed the proposals submitted anonymously as part of the competition. The selected finalist teams are as follows:
ADHOC Architectes, along with collaborating firms Hélio Araujo and GBI
NIPPAYSAGE will work with Eurêka Environnement
Pelletier de Fontenay has partnered with the firms Enclume, Nouveaux Voisins, and LN Paysage
WAA Montréal will work with Ponton Guillot
"We are delighted to see so much talent and creativity in the proposals received. This project is a unique opportunity to create a new public space that will strengthen our ties with the community. Our goal is to offer citizens an urban space connected to public institutions, surrounding parks, and the banks of the Rivière des Prairies, while maintaining gathering and safe spaces that reflect our borough," said Dimitrios (Jim) Beis, Mayor of the Pierrefonds-Roxboro borough.
The winner will be chosen by the jury at the Pierrefonds Cultural Center on November 4, 2025, during a public hearing to which citizens will be invited. Details on how to attend the public presentation will be communicated shortly.
A public square resilient to climatic hazards
This meeting, gathering, and activity space will be open to the public in all seasons and will demonstrate resilience to climatic hazards, particularly the recurrent flooding in this sector of the borough. It is an exceptional opportunity to implement best construction practices in flood-prone areas and even develop innovative solutions.
This public square, with an area of approximately 11,000 square meters, will also serve as a cooling island, in addition to being accessible and inclusive, to meet the needs of a diverse population.
The construction budget for the project, part of the borough's Ten-Year Capital Expenditure Programme (CEP), is $3,700,000 before tax.

Shopware Reports Exponential Growth in North America for the First Half of 2025
Credits surge to the addition of flagship clients and solid expansion of their ever-growing partner network. NEW YORK, July 22, 2025 /CNW/ -- Shopware US, the leading global e-commerce platform, has reported triple-digit YoY growth for the first half of 2025, thanks to a series of major client wins, an expanding partner network, and product innovations that have kept Shopware at the forefront of Agentic Commerce AI innovation. The company's success was recently recognized by B2B Paradigm in their latest report, receiving a medal in 11 out of 12 categories for commerce solutions tailored to mid-size merchants. Shopware has added several marquee clients across a variety of verticals, including UPPAbaby, Good360, Eagle Crusher, BlueAlly, Noble, and Dynamic Team Sports. The platform has also broadened its partnerships network across the region with new partners in the areas of payments, functionality, and hosting with these new partner integrations: PayTrace, BlueSnap, Klaviyo, Dopple, Zamp, Hawksearch, Sitevibes, Ibexa, iPaaS, Webscale, and Liquid Web. The release of Shopware AI has proven pivotal toward automating workflows and simplifying operations, embedded with AI functionally which gives merchants much-needed tools to succeed in an AI-driven world. Enhanced B2B components further empower merchants to manage complex business models, ultimately leading to greater success and scalability. Earlier this year, Shopware announced their Agentic Commerce Alliance, an initiative which aims to protect merchant independence and preserve diversity across the globe as AI monopolization by large players like Google, Amazon and OpenAI increasingly becomes a threat to merchants. To further capitalize on this growth, Shopware has appointed Ryan Mercier as Vice President of Sales for North America, responsible for scaling marketing efforts and strengthening client relationships as Shopware deepens its presence across the US and Canada. "Shopware North America had an exceptional first half of 2025, surpassing all our targets and achieving 300% year-over-year growth in this market. To build on our momentum and continue gaining market share, we're deepening our investment by bringing on Ryan to help lead the next phase of our growth," said Jason Nyhus, President and General Manager, Shopware North America. Later this year, on September 16, Shopware will spotlight their success at their annual community events: Shoptoberfest and Shopware Community Day. These annual events bring together industry leaders to celebrate progress in e-commerce, highlight merchant success and explore what the future has in store.
