Did not know that was still in service. Would be a cool spot to have not just a car service, but if they held events for the car community.

They were removing some of the windows on the upper floors this morning as I was walking by.

Progressing impressively. Is it known if an exterior wash is in the scope of the development? The building is really dirty.

ONE THIRD OF THE WAY

Wehwehneh Bahgahkinahgohn means “it is visible.”

Four years in, that vision is becoming reality.

In April 2022, the Southern Chiefs’ Organization was gifted the former Hudson’s Bay Company building in downtown Winnipeg, Treaty One Territory, beginning the transformation of a colonial symbol into a space rooted in First Nations vision and leadership.

Grand Chief Jerry Daniels marked this milestone with a tour of Wehwehneh Bahgahkinahgohn, reflecting on the progress made and the work ahead.

The project is now one third of the way to completion!

With the glulam structure installed and work underway on the skylight, that vision is steadily taking shape.
Southern Chiefs'​ Organization (SCO)

One would hope with a $330 Million price tag.
Without a washing, what's the point of redeveloping it if not as shiny as possible & clean to help with the reincarnation?

The nerd in me thought "wow, the Borg", but yeah that's an incredible space. The SCO is doing an amazing job on this re-development. I love seeing these updates.

New windows going in. Green frames and mullion composition to match the originals from 1929 and removed in the 60’s.
