This project involved the demolition of an existing four-storey structure at the above address to prepare the site for the construction of the new REISS headquarters building.  The new construction consisted out of a six-storey building with a reduced level basement.

The original brick façade at the Picton Place side was to remain and therefore required a façade retention structure to provide lateral support to the façade during the demolition and construction process.  Various temporary support structures to retaining walls were required due to the reduced level excavation.  Temporary supports were also provided to the adjacent buildings to serve as protection during the construction process.
