    Something similar in Fermont, Quebec, but it’s a wall of these buildings

      You sent me down a wiki hole!

      The town is notable for the huge self-contained structure containing apartments, stores, schools, bars, a hotel, restaurants, a supermarket and swimming pool; the large building shelters a community of smaller apartment buildings and homes on its leeward side. Popularly known as The Wall (Le Mur), the structure was designed to be a windscreen to the rest of the town. It permits residents (other than mine workers) to never leave the building during the long winter, which usually lasts about seven months.

        The liquor store was outside though. Driving to this town is fun because you literally drive on the train tracks through a tunnel to get there.

          I think you’re talking about the town from the OP not Fermont which is what the person you’re replying to was talking about.
