Canada's construction news
TORONTO – Trying to repair the Ontario Science Centre building would be “foolish,” Premier Doug Ford said Wednesday in response to calls to reverse his abrupt closure of the attraction.
Ford announced Wednesday that the original engineering report has now been peer reviewed and officials will hold a press conference Thursday to discuss the various other issues with the building. “It’s not as simple as you just saying, ‘Go in there and throw some shingles down and we’re all done.’ You have to listen to the technical briefing. That place is absolutely just a total mess from top to bottom, to front to back, to every single building – even the bridgeway is closed, the air conditioning is gone. It would be a foolish decision .
The city of Toronto did not immediately respond to a request for comment, but one councillor wrote on social media that the terms of the 99-year lease with the city and its conservation authority state that the building could only be used as a science centre.
