Quebec Engineering Open House a Hit!
On Saturday, October 15, the Quebec Consulting-Engineers Association held its first-ever Open House event, showcasing 17 of the province’s most innovative engineering structures in Montreal, Quebec City, Trois-Rivières and Saguenay.
For the event, Dessau organized tours of two well-known Montreal landmarks: the Bell Centre and the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. More than 800 members of the public came out to hear our engineers describe the work that went into these two exceptional structures. Visitors expressed enthusiasm, interest and curiosity while getting a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the buildings.
