Montreal & Quebec Commercial Real Estate News & Insights with Andrew Cross

Описание: The Espace Montréal Podcast kicks off with a special conversation that marks a new chapter for commercial real estate dialogue in Quebec. Axel is joined by Andrew Cross, publisher and owner of Espace Publication, the magazine that for over 30 years has been the voice of the industry in Montreal and Quebec City.

Andrew shares the story of how Espace began in the early 1990s, survived recessions and political uncertainty, and grew into the go-to publication for developers, investors, and brokers. We explore the cycles of Montreal’s market, from overbuilding in the 80s to the rise of REITs and pension funds, and now the growing role of family offices and private investors.

Together, Axel and Andrew talk about the vision for this new partnership—bringing the magazine’s thought leadership, market insights, and access to industry leaders into the podcast format. The goal is simple: to create a platform where CEOs, developers, and decision-makers can share their vision and where listeners can gain a deeper understanding of Montreal’s evolving real estate landscape.

Tune in to hear how this collaboration will bridge print, digital, and audio to tell the stories shaping the future of commercial real estate in Quebec.
