Parking Disruption

The work is planned to conclude in late December 2024.
The work will be completed in phases to allow the building to remain open to public parking for the duration of the project. It is anticipated that no more than 50% of the available 271 parking spaces will be closed at any time. There is also parking availability at the Chown Memorial and Robert Bruce Memorial parking garages in the two adjacent blocks to the west.
- The Chown Memorial garage will be experiencing two full closures in the coming weeks to accommodate cleaning of the garage. If you require parking during this time Hanson Memorial garage is located at 105 Brock St. and should have ample space during these times.
