2003年，Cap-Rouge峭壁部分坍塌之后，魁北克城为了保护这个特殊区域，完成了一项暂时性的项目。2005年，北美最早的法国殖民地的历史遗迹在此处被发现，这使得魁北克市民委员会决定对这个峭壁进行深度发掘，以求发现更多的考古遗迹。这次挖掘使得很多树木遭砍伐，严重破坏了该地区的自然环境。
因此，地方政府推出了一项长期工程来保护此处的生态环境，并为当地的居民和游客提供更安全的生活空间。这个项目起初仅仅是保护性质的工程设计，之后它演变成为了景观设计项目，用现代艺术的表现方式纪念整个场地以及峭壁上沿着圣劳伦斯河的一个通道。
该项目的首席设计师André Arata说：“设计理念旨在突出现代化气息，通过现代艺术的表达方式传递这里独特的文化。”这个混凝土记忆墙的表面覆盖着自然耐候钢建装饰板，唤起了当地对500年内海浪和冰川冲击的记忆。另外，记忆墙可以在四季观赏是由于它雕塑化的墙体形式和现代化的集成灯。
设计师们通过与考古遗址科学委员会合作，解决了一些技术上的难题，建设了一个适合场地环境的挡土墙来保护考古遗址。遗迹被用土填充的木箱保护着，上面还覆盖了充满岩石的网状材料，为了使场地增加一些新鲜元素，网状材料上面种植了大量的本地植物。
总而言之，设计师们最大限度地利用和保护了当地的遗迹资源，通过一系列现代艺术手法展现了北方文化的独特性。记忆墙使用低维护、可持续的材料和灯光，并尽可能使用本土植物，保护了生态环境。

After the partial collapse of the Cap-Rouge cliff in 2003, the City of Quebec completed a temporary project to protect the area adjacent to the chemin de la Plage-Jacques Cartier—the boulevard along Jacques Cartier beach. In 2005, the archaeological remains of North America’s first French colony (1541-1543) were discovered on the site, prompting the site owner, the CCNQ (National Capital commission of Quebec), to open an archaeological dig on top of the cliff. This process, including the removal of trees, changes to the natural drainage patterns and soil compacting accelerated the erosion that had already been occurring.
Thus, a longer-term project to shore up the cliff in order to protect the archaeological remains and keep residents and visitors safe was launched. At first, the project was an engineering one. It involved installing plant-covered mesh retaining fabric at the top of the cliff and a protective wall at the bottom. Later, it evolved into a landscape architecture project, with the inclusion of a work of contemporary art commemorating the site’s history and a path along the Saint Lawrence River at the cliff’s base.
In the words of design director André Arata “The concept seeks to convey the site’s history through an artistic concept with a modern flair, where the present is written on the past, like a tablet that can be wiped clean and used again.” The concrete wall is covered with naturally weathering steel architectural panels that evoke the waves and ice that have pounded on the Cape for nearly 500 years. Corten steel was selected for its rich echoes of the site’s history—from Cartier’s descriptions of the iron ore at the site to the construction of the iconic Tracel trestle bridge that still dominates the landscape. Excerpts from Cartier and Roberval’s travel journals are inscribed on the walls, recalling their hope to build the first French colony here. In addition, the site can be enjoyed in all seasons, due to the sculpture-like form of the wall and the integrated lights.
The landscape architects who coordinated the project ensured that all of the involved parties including structural engineers, electrical engineers, civil engineers, archaeologists, lighting specialists and representatives of the client (CCNQ) were collaborating at all times. This allowed the project to evolve at each stage of completion.
By working alongside the archaeological site’s scientific committee, the landscape architects implemented technical solutions, building an environmentally appropriate retaining wall to ensure that the archaeological site was preserved. The remains were protected by soil-filled wooden cases covered with mesh material anchored into the rock. To blend the new work into the Cape’s natural look, the mesh material was covered with extensive native plantings. These plants and shrubs allow visitors to catch a glimpse of the mouth of the Cap-Rouge and Saint Lawrence rivers—the explorers’ original route into the region.
Constant communication between the CCNQ, local businesses and area residents was the key to improved signage and organization at the site. Following an informational meeting for residents and site users, the wall’s design was changed and measures to mitigate the local impact on residents and businesses were implemented.
To conclude, the project designers made maximum use of the site’s archaeological assets and constraints in order to create an innovative artistic project that incorporates sustainable development and the concept of “nordicity”, the unique characteristics of Northern cultures, by selecting low-maintenance, sustainable materials, integrating lighting into the architectural walls and using native plants, shrubs and trees wherever possible.
The high quality and artistic urban space planning of this project will allow this site to be preserved for future generations and endless discoveries.
