The borough of Côte-des-Neiges—Notre-Dame-de-Grâce has approved a zoning change to build a 10-floor building that will house a 40,000-square-foot supermarket.

Provigo, which has owned the piece of land on the southwest corner of De Maisonneuve Boulevard and Claremont Avenue for 17 years, wants to build a store.

However, some residents are concerned that the grocery store will lead to an increase in traffic on residential streets.

Provigo has addressed concerns of traffic and parking issues. The project includes 250 underground parking spaces — 80 of which will be reserved for Provigo customers.

The borough also believes the area near the supermarket can accommodate the expected increase in traffic.

The development is also set to include seniors' residences and office space for the Montreal Children's Foundation.
