Construction Update
Dear neighbours,
Below is a brief update on the CIBC SQUARE project:
Construction at 81 Bay Street
As we near completion of Phase I of CIBC SQUARE at 81 Bay Street, please note that there will be periodic testing of building fire alarms by City inspectors, which is mandatory for occupancy. This testing will be completed during daytime working hours.
Overbuild Park
We have reached several construction milestones for the overbuild park, with Phase 1 of the overbuild park expected to be complete in late summer 2021. Steel installation and concrete pouring also continues as the park extends from 81 Bay Street towards the future 141 Bay Street building. This work continues to take place overnight as it requires access to the active rail corridor. For safety, construction personnel and equipment are not permitted while trains are running on the tracks, requiring work to proceed overnight when trains are not in operation.
Construction at 141 Bay Street
Demolition of the old Metrolinx bus terminal is ongoing, as it sits on the site of the future 141 Bay Street building. This work is anticipated to continue through the week of March 22, 2021. Crews will also start drilling and caisson work at 141 Bay this week, which is expected to take place during the daytime working hours over the next three months.
When are we working?
The following regular working hours are expected at CIBC SQUARE:
7AM - 7PM Monday to Friday: Regular working hours at 81 Bay Street and 141 Bay Street.
11PM - 5AM Monday to Saturday: Overnight work in the rail corridor for the park overbuild.
9AM - 7PM Saturday: Regular working hours at 81 Bay Street and 141 Bay Street.
We thank you in advance for your patience during this phase of construction. For any questions or comments, please email us at
