50 Columbine Driveway - Deconstruction Update

Starting in December 2022, Health Canada commissioned the deconstruction of the Environmental Health Centre (EHC) Laboratory located at 50 Colombine Driveway. A contract via Public Services and Procurement Canada was awarded to Cavan Construction. The project began with the construction of fencing around the building and adjacent green space (between EHC and Goldenrod driveway) and the entire area is cordoned off with fencing. Goldenrod and Columbine remain open.

This project is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2023.

After deconstruction the site will be turned into a “Greenfield” that meets federal government policies, codes, standards and best practices of sustainability until such time as the area is redeveloped in accordance with the Tunney’s Pasture Master Plan. The landscape plan includes a vegetated slope and naturalized area on the site.
