The tenders closed a few weeks ago, the winner was to be announced in late March or April. I bet it came in over budget but …….^ Maybe tweet to her and ask?

Bids are in and coming to General Govt Committee next week. http://app.toronto.ca/tmmis/viewAgendaItemHistory.do?item=2019.GL4.7
Price is, not surprisingly, higher but Staff recommend: ..
City Council award a contract for Tender Call Number 319-2018 for the construction of the new St. Lawrence Market North Building to The Buttcon Limited/The Atlas Corporation Joint Venture in the amount of $91,800,000 net of all taxes ($93,415,680 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries), including all allowances, contingencies, and charges, being the lowest compliant bid in conformance with the Tender requirements.
No, Walshe bid in THIS tender was WCC Construction Canada, ULC o/a Walsh Canada $98,609,506. (The $88 million bid was their 2018 one and they were more expensive than Bondfield. The City must accept the lowest conforming bid and that's why they went with Bondfield, unfortunately!)If they had went with Walsh they would still be under that:
Walsh Canada $88,032,746

Apparently some Councillors (the Etobicoke ones) are trying to stop the whole project!That's what I meant - if they had went with Walsh back in 2018, they'd still save a few mils compared to what they got now.

I was curious if anything had happened with this one. Still nothing yet?What a disaster! I wonder if this project will be finished by the time the next municipal election rolls by.

Look at the plans, the 'windows' of the ground floor (Market) part will all open up allowing the vendors to 'spill out' onto Jarvis side (as previously) and also onto Market Lane Park.I'd go with an indoor/outdoor hydrid here (assumes world class arcitecture lol). Revenue type builds on the east and west with atrium north south- good weather protection for farmer's market (open doors when possible) and almost good weather -acceptable days for events. Then roller skating ;-). P.S. cheaper.
The cost of the St. Lawrence Market north redevelopment project has climbed by nearly $14 million, bringing the total bill to $116.302 million.
