Enhancement of Westmount High School front façade complete

The English Montreal School Board has completed a major renovation project at Westmount High School, which included a number of important enhancements to the front façade.

Besides new steps, steel columns were reinforced, curtain wall windows replaced and new front entrance doors installed.  New handrails were also added on the stairways.

Total construction costs will exceed $800,000.

“The timing for the completion of this work was excellent, given the fact Westmount High School is celebrating its 150^th anniversary,” said EMSB Director General Nick Katalifos, who thanked project manager Mariana Osorio and her team who were responsible for the project.

Westmount High School is presently home to 810 students.
