CREECO inaugurates $208M Odea Montreal complex
CREECO—The white façade of Odea Montreal, made of pre-stressed concrete, is intended to reflect purity and solidity, the designer stated.

MONTREAL—Cree-owned CREECO, the parent company of Eeyou Eenou Realty Properties, celebrated the inauguration its 26-storey mixed-use residential project in Montreal recently.

Other collaborators on the $208-million Odea Montreal complex are Cogir Immobilier, Lemay and Indigenous architect Douglas Cardinal.

Odea Montreal is located between Old Montreal and Griffintown on a site owned by the James Bay Crees since 1995. The residence features 367 rental apartments, 68 condominiums and office and retail space.

The complex integrates various architectural elements that evoke stone, wood, greenery, nature and light, stated a release.

The name “Odea” is inspired by the Cree word “ode,” meaning canoe. The white facade, made of pre-stressed concrete, is intended to reflect purity and solidity, while the interior courtyard features finishes reminiscent of tree hues, as if observing a split log, the designer stated.

“Odea Montreal stands as a testament to the vision and strength of our people,” said Derrick Neeposh, president of the Cree Regional Economic Enterprises Company (CREECO), in a statement. “It is not just a building; it is a symbol of our commitment to sustainable growth, cultural pride and the economic empowerment of the Cree Nation. Our partnership with Cogir Immobilier in bringing this vision to life marks a new chapter in our journey toward self-sufficiency and resilience.”
