Town of Mount Royal (TMR) is Ville de Mont-Royal's 1910s garden city town-planning suburban single-family + 1950s post-war tudor/georgian revival; frederick todd-designed urban-planning experiment submarket. Town of Mount Royal (TMR) was master-planned by Frederick Todd in 1910 as a Garden City — Canada's first suburban planned community, with curving streets, generous setbacks, and a central park — and the entire original 1910 Todd-designed area is treated as a heritage planning district under TMR's character preservation bylaw, which restricts visible alterations including front-yard fencing, driveway material, and roof pitch.

What a architectural design project looks like here

Town of Mount Royal (TMR) was master-planned by Frederick Todd in 1910 as a Garden City — Canada's first suburban planned community, with curving streets, generous setbacks, and a central park — and the entire original 1910 Todd-designed area is treated as a heritage planning district under TMR's character preservation bylaw, which restricts visible alterations including front-yard fencing, driveway material, and roof pitch.

TMR is governed by an independent reconstituted municipality with its own building department, and the permit process is significantly more rigorous than Montréal arrondissement permits — pre-application meetings + heritage planner review are effectively mandatory on any addition or substantial renovation, adding 6-12 weeks to most timelines.

Design-build integrated — CAD, elevations, borough permit sets, PIIA + heritage panel coordination. OAQ (Ordre des architectes du Québec) licensed architect required on most projects. In Town of Mount Royal (TMR) specifically, 1910s garden city town-planning suburban single-family + 1950s post-war tudor/georgian revival; frederick todd-designed urban-planning experiment stock means architectural design scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Montréal scoping flow factors ville de mont-royal and tmr garden city heritage planning into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
