The village of Sutton is very attractive for its inhabitants as well as for its visitors. The cultural, artistic, sporting and commercial offer is abundant and diversified. The quality of life is unanimously recognized. While its vitality is felt throughout the territory, its heart beats in the center of the village, a meeting point and a neuralgic passage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to highlight its existing assets and its capacity for innovation, the Town of Sutton has decided to put in place a process of dialogue and citizen consultation to define, by December 2022, a comprehensive plan for the village core that will shape its future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2021, a first step was taken to fully analyze the studies conducted over the past several years. In May 2022, meetings were initiated with various community stakeholders, experts and interest groups, which will end with two major public consultations in October, in order to collectively draw the outline of a comprehensive plan for the village core.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several sites in the center of the village are targeted by this process: Principale and Maple Streets, the John-Sleeth Cultural and Community Centre, the Sutton Museum of Communications and History and the former Filtex factory site. Together and separately, they offer a high potential for improvement and dynamization of our village heart, for the well-being of our present and future population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Presentation of the concerned sites<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Principale and Maple Streets<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Principale Street (or Route 139) and Maple Street are the two main traffic arteries in the heart of the village. Traffic can be heavy depending on the time of day or week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both streets fall under the jurisdiction of the Government of Quebec. It is therefore the Ministry of Transport that has the authority to make decisions regarding the development of the street to ensure the proper flow of traffic, signage, and safety of the surrounding area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2005, the Town buried the overhead electrical and telecommunications networks on Principale Street between the two railroad tracks. This transformation has significantly improved the urban landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the popularity of cycling and the growth of tourism, Principale Street is undergoing several considerations regarding pedestrian safety (sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, signage), speed limits and traffic during peak periods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Transportation is considering upgrading Principale Street and Maple Street in the next few years. The public should take this opportunity to express their views on potential improvements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John-Sleeth Cultural and Community Centre<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n

John-Sleeth Community and Cultural Centre in the heart of the village<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The building, which dates back to 1885, was built by Mr. Olmstead, Sutton’s first mayor. The building housed the English school of Sutton Academy for 75 years and then the French school Ave Maria until 1986. It is currently used to house four non-profit organizations: Jardin d’enfants de Sutton, Maison des jeunes de Sutton, Arts Sutton and Biblioth\u00e8que Sutton Library. The site enjoys a large wooded lot and an enviable location in the heart of the village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the deterioration of the building is being felt under the weight of the years. In November 2019, the Town conducted studies on its condition and durability. At the time, the work was estimated to cost several million dollars. The heritage rating given to this building does not allow access to financial support from the Minist\u00e8re de la Culture et des Communications. In order to ensure the safety of existing tenants, the Town must make decisions about the future of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sutton Museum of Communications and History<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The museum building originally housed the stables of the adjacent opulent house, built in the late 19th century by Adolphus Greely. His son, Elwin Bernard Greely, was twice mayor of Sutton. Acquired by Edmund Ebert in 1962, the residence was transformed into an inn. It is currently home to the La Fontaine restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edmund Ebert opens a museum in 1984 in the old stables. The Sutton Museum of Communications and History, created in 2000, manages the collection and organizes exhibitions. Open to the public for five months of the year, the building, which has been owned by the Town since 1998, is not insulated and requires major renovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The site of the former Filtex factory<\/mark><\/h3>\n\n\n

Land of the former Filtex, along the railway<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The land is located in the old Sutton station zone. This quadrangle was completely destroyed in 1898 by a large fire that destroyed thirty-five buildings in total. The station was quickly put back on its feet and the enthusiasm for the reconstruction was great. In 1902, a campaign was launched to promote the village, extolling its attractions: clean air, clear waters, fishing, hunting, mountain walks, magnificent scenery, proximity to Montreal (two hours by the Montreal-Boston express train) and safety. In 1939, the Sutton Silk Mills manufacturing company, which would become Filtex, settled there. It became an economic engine and an important employer in Sutton until its closure in 2004. In its heyday, the company employed over 200 workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acquired by the municipality in 2017, the Filtex buildings had to be demolished in 2019 for safety reasons. Since 2020, the site has been the subject of several reflection processes in order to find a new vocation for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
