REQUIREMENT The Arsenal Foundry, located near Saint-Jean Gate in Old Québec, is a red-brick industrial building constructed between 1902 and 1906. Owned by Parks Canada, it is currently used as a museum space and as a venue for various rental events. In the fall of 2026, the interior structures currently installed within the building will be demolished to restore the building’s original interior volume and allow the redeployment of heritage machinery and exhibits on a single level. The demolition work will create an interior opening providing access to a lower level containing a nineteenth-century masonry remnant. This opening shall remain visible and accessible while being protected by code-compliant guardrails. Following this work, Parks Canada wishes to fit up the foundry to create a flexible, multi-purpose space intended for: 1 Heritage interpretation; 2 Permanent and temporary exhibitions; 3 Educational activities; 4 Corporate events; 5 Rental events. This mandate includes the design, supply and installation of new flooring finishes and guardrails under a turnkey delivery approach.
