St. Mary’s Academy

Location: 550 Wellington Crescent, Winnipeg, Manitoba

Construction of 5,100 sq. ft. 2- storey library addition and a single storey uniform shop addition that blends in along the West elevation of the existing staff and corridor link.  Within the 1963 building, interior renovations and asbestos abatement were also done within a gross area approximately 39,835 square feet.  Renovations included a new art room and fitness room off the existing gym. The greatest challenge on this project was in the phasing; renovations took place while the school was fully functional therefore limiting asbestos abatement until the school year was over, which created an extremely tight deadline for September occupancy.
