Scheduled for completion in 2008 

Two thousand Manitoba Hydro employees will work downtown in the company’s new, 600,000 square-foot head office building once construction is completed on this $180-million project. With a late 2007 completion date, the Hydro building will front Portage Avenue and occupy one square block between Carlton and Edmonton Streets.

“We believe our new head office building will leave a long-lasting legacy for the downtown and City of Winnipeg. The building will meet Manitoba Hydro’s future needs and will play a part in promoting downtown Winnipeg as a vital working, shopping and living community. We are very excited about becoming part of the diverse and revitalized downtown.” — Bob Brennan, President and Chief Executive Officer, Manitoba Hydro.
