City of Montreal unveils a new downtown basketball court — with a twist
In an effort to bring back life to Montreal’s downtown and convince workers to come back, the chamber of commerce has unveiled a new rooftop basketball court — with a twist.
It’s a concept created by local design studio Harrison Fun in collaboration with the Montreal Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. Each team is assigned a colour and when the net lights up with that colour the team must shoot the ball in that specific net. Whoever gets the most shots wins.“It’s to create a physical experience with this inspiration for every — the young, the worker, family friends,” said Amelie Madrid, a project director at Harrison Fun Studio.
“It’s something that we are already looking into, “said Greg Trahan, the pro team’s ticket director. “I think it’s great.”
