Borough authorities have okayed the demolition of a building on Berri that was long home to the Ecole Saint Gerard until it closed in 2012 one year after serious mould issues were detected.
Villeray-St. Michel-Park Extension council approved the demotion of the longtime CDSM school board structure at a council meeting Tuesday evening.
The old facade is expected to be saved and used in the new $10 million building that will take its place.
The new school is expected to have room for over 600 students when it opens in 2016.
