Toronto's St. Lawrence Market North Building is finally under construction and will bring an unbelievable showpiece to the northwest corner of Front and Jarvis Streets. The new building will include space for the replacement of the antique and farmers markets that were previously in the building and will also house the Toronto Court Services on the floors above which will relocate outmoded courts from different sites all over the city per Urban Toronto.
Work on this site has been active since 2015 when demolition work started. At that time, archaeological finds were made of previous market buildings built in 1831, 1851 and 1904 including sewer brickworks, foundations and cellars. When they did further exploration in 2016, they found more artifacts. They decided at that time to include some historical finds in the replacement building and this slowed the project to a crawl. Work even came to a complete stop when Bondfield, the first firm to win the construction bid, collapsed under bankruptcy.
The project was then re-tendered and a new contract valued at $116,302,000 was awarded to The Buttcon Limited/The Atlas Corporation Joint Venture.
