The Southern Chiefs Organization (SCO) is transforming the six-storey, 655,000-square-foot historic Hudson’s Bay Company Building in downtown Winnipeg. The revitalization of the historic retail space into a multi-use building will revive downtown Winnipeg and exemplifies both economic and social reconciliation.
The $310 million project features over 373 affordable residential units, each unit will have a view out of the historic façade or into the newly imagined atrium (which is the size of an NHL ice rink), hosting unique designs inspired by all 34 SCO First Nation communities. The building will also provide office and retail space for First Nations entrepreneurs.
