Centre François-Michelle is a mixed primary and secondary education institution that since 1958 welcomes young people from 4 to 21 years with a mild intellectual disability.
The non-profit corporation that oversees the Centre has mandated Construction Vergo Inc. to expand its school on Clark Street in Montreal. The new 12,400 sq. ft. section of the school will benefit from abundant natural light through curtain walls and multiple skylights. In addition to adding a gymnasium with changing rooms, the new section of the school will have, among other things, a new horticulture class, a green wall, indoor planting bins, a terrace with bins for horticultural work, a green roof and a covered parking lot.

Institutional construction requires a high level of efficiency, from the point of view of energy, functionality, and the use of public funds. Vergo is proud to have delivered institutional projects that have met their objectives from every point of view.
Over the years, Vergo has faced many challenges in institutional construction, which has only added to its expertise in this area. From education to the community sector, we have demonstrated our ability to deliver high-quality buildings on time and on budget.
Many schools, academies, colleges, universities, institutes, day schools and educational centres are recognised for the quality of their teaching. However, they live in buildings that are sometimes more than 100 years old or obsolete, which no longer meet the standards of the current building code.
In these cases, Vergo can therefore take care of all types of renovation work. Staff safety requires work that meets many standards, such as the width of corridors, stairs or emergency exits.
Our team of experts is able to accompany you every step of the way in your renovation project. An official partner of feeP, Vergo has more than hundreds of major school projects to its credit.
For more than 25 years, Vergo has applied robust construction expertise to each project. Our team has a passion for quality and a commitment to satisfying customers across Canada.
