The Macdonald Block Complex is the hub for administrative services for the Government of Ontario. The complex consists of five buildings, including four office towers, with a total of approximately 1.7 million square feet. From Infrastructure Ontario: “Each building in the complex will be taken back to its original building core, remediated and rebuilt using modern technologies, systems and materials while preserving the integrity of its many heritage features. The newly reconstructed complex will meet current building, health, safety, and accessibility standards and will accommodate significantly more employees through more efficient use of this government-owned office space.” A significant milestone to occur in 2021 was the first of many concrete pours within the complex’s underground parking area. Infrastructure Ontario noted the importance of this milestone in their March report, stating that it marks an official “transition from demolition to reconstruction.”
