Demolition is actually happening!

Fencing was put in place at the end of last week and the digging up of the sidewalk started this morning!

Large green and white signs are in place on the fence and the building pointing to the entry. It might be a little confusing for a while, but staff will be around to direct you to the right place.

Ground Breaking

The ground breaking ceremony took place this morning. Mike Toohey, Chairman of the City Center Authority, Mayor Johnson, Former Senator Bruno and Mark Baker, President of the City Center all gave speeches to commemorate the event. The highlight of the morning's festivities however was the actual ground breaking done by children from the community. Pictures of the event will come soon!


The next step is the demolition, scheduled to start bright and early tomorrow morning, the 15th.

Communications and A/V Bids

Just a quick reminder... Communications and A/V bids are due at the City Center, in the lobby, at 11am on Thursday the 10th. Public Opening will happen right at 11.

Offices have Moved!


The Administrative Offices (Judy, Andi, Donna, Rebecca and Sarah) have officially moved across the street. No phones yet, but hopefully they will work tomorrow.

The police officer and cars stopped at the light had a good laugh as we tried to get our picture taken in the cross walk. A big Thanks to Angela at the Convention Bureau for being our photographer!
