As announced by Press Wednesday, the Chrome Hotel, located on René-Lévesque Street in Montreal, will welcome 111 people this week. “This new site will accommodate people experiencing homelessness who test positive for COVID-19 and who do not require hospital care as well as those awaiting a result and those who must isolate themselves”, said the City of Montreal in a press release Thursday.

This site will be jointly managed by the Mission Old Brewery organization and the CIUSSS du Center-Sud-de-l’Île-de-Montréal.

A second Montreal hotel will also offer 50 places starting in February for homeless people living in Montreal.

More details to come.
