The unique 11th floor position
Quebec City has very few high-rise residential buildings due to heritage preservation regulations. The Caïman building at 735 Boulevard Charest Est is one of the few 12-floor properties in Saint-Roch. The 11th floor offers panoramic views east toward Old Quebec + Saint-Lawrence River, west toward Saint-Roch creative district + Laurentians on clear days. From sunrise to sunset, the loft captures changing light over the historic city.
Matisse-inspired design
The Matisse aesthetic at Caïman #1104 isn't theme park imitation - it's color and form curation inspired by Matisse's mid-career Mediterranean palette: cobalt blue, vermillion red, lemon yellow, mossy green. Walls feature curated framed Matisse prints (limited edition reproductions). Curved organic furniture forms echo Matisse cut-outs. The result feels like a Mediterranean villa transported to Quebec - warm color contrast against the winter snow visible from windows.
2-bedroom configuration
Master bedroom faces east (sunrise views Old Quebec direction). Second bedroom faces west (sunset views, ideal for second couple or kids). Both rooms have blackout curtains for sleep. Sleeps 4 adults total. Open concept living + dining + kitchen with windows on 3 sides.
Best for whom
- Couples celebrating anniversary : penthouse view + Matisse romance + walking distance Old Quebec restaurants
- 2 couples splitting rental : 2 private bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, common space large enough not to feel crowded
- Photographers : panoramic views = professional photography opportunities sunrise/sunset
- Luxury travelers wanting unique vs hotel : alternative to Old Quebec luxury hotels (Fairmont Frontenac, Auberge Saint-Antoine)
