The City of Edmonton will benefit from $308,159 for pre-construction work for the Iron Works building, a 36,000-square-foot facility constructed in 1909, located in The Quarters Downtown. Funding will support consultation activities on the design and outfitting of the building, development of final architectural and engineering drawings, implementation of the construction tendering process, and final design costing. Once complete, the main tenants of the Iron Works building will provide a broad range of services to artists, and arts and festival organizations across Edmonton.

The plaza behind the south annex will be a nice criss cross of pathways, and grassy elevations made out of iron.
