This new Exploration Center project was made possible thanks to a financial contribution of $5 million divided equally between the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing (MAMH) and the Metropolitan Community of Montreal (CMM). The City of Laval completed the financing for a total investment of more than $10.5 million. \u00c9co-Nature is very proud to manage this Center in which it has also invested more than $2.5 million with the help of valuable partners. A significant part of this sum was devoted to its new permanent exhibition on the history and ecosystem of the River entitled Believe it or not!<\/em>.<\/p>\r\n The Exploration Center, located at 345 boulevard Sainte-Rose, stands out with contemporary and avant-garde architecture offering a magnificent view of the Rivi\u00e8re-des-Mille-\u00celes that is sure to please everyone! In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, this establishment is aiming for LEED Gold certification, because it was built with the idea of \u200b\u200bachieving high performance in key areas of human health and the environment.<\/p>\r\n The Parc de la Rivi\u00e8re-des-Mille-\u00celes will officially open its Exploration Center for the start of the season, on Saturday, May 11, 2019. From this date, visitors will be able to rent boats (canoe, kayak, paddle board, rowboat, rabaska, etc.) at the new rental center.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-10365","communiques","type-communiques","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
