In 2003, the City of Rimouski asked Lemay+DAA Group to design a waterfront promenade called “La Promenade de la Mer”. The structures recall naval architecture and the white ships of the early 20th century that traveled the river. The promenade serves pedestrians and cyclists and offers panoramic view points of the St.Lawrence River. The project was granted both a provincial and a national design award by CSLA. Thanks to this success, the group was asked to design an extension to this promenade which has become a distinctive urban feature for the city.
