The Saint-Michel Environnemental Complex is a large multi-functional park in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is located in borough of Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension on the site of a former limestone quarry, the Miron Quarry. Its current area is {{convert|48|ha}}, and has {{convert|5.5|km}} of pathways.

History

The city of Montreal acquired the Miron Quarry in 1988 to make a landfill waste site. Starting in 1995 under the direction of the city, the site was gradually altered in order to transform it into an urban green space, now comparable in size to Mount Royal Park. It is expected to become the largest urban park in the city within by 2020, with an estimated area of {{convert|192|ha}}.[1][2][3][4][5]

Actual usage

Nearly {{convert|75|ha}} are still used for waste disposal. The complex also includes the park, a recyclable materials recovery facility, a biogas powerplant, a composting site and a landfill.

The Centre d'expertise sur les matières résiduelles (CEMR), dedicated to the research and application of effective, environmentally friendly and sustainable waste management is located in the complex.

In recent years the Cité des Arts du cirque (TOHU), a non-profit organization, is installed on the site. With multiple vocations, it has a mission to make Montreal an international circus arts capital, contributing to the environmental rehabilitation of the landfill and to support community development of the St. Michel district.
