One underway in Regina...
This was originally built as a department store in the early 1900s. It was then used as the head office for the organization that developed into the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool... then Viterra... and now within "Glencore", as they have added Viterra into their giant organization.
This was supposedly in the works for years (in terms of planning, trying to get some city tax breaks/heritage restoration funding, etc). It's unclear if they will just be restoring the building, or if they will be trying to repurpose it. There have been some staff reductions, so Viterra could probably mostly consolidate into the tower behind and leave some (maybe 1st floor retail) or all of the old Department Store for another use.
