Renovations to the Original 519: Expected Completion Fall 2009

In the past four months the contractor has made progress with the following projects:

  • Continuing replacement of the electrical system
  • Leveling the floors throughout the original building by removing the sub floor, leveling the joists and installing new plywood sub floors
  • Additional structural work
  • Drywall partitions and ceilings
  • Painting
  • Installation of slate flooring in the entrance and lobby

While we had hoped to re-open the original building in June 2009, we continue to experience unexpected delays.  Renovating a century-old building is not a simple task and our priority is to complete the renovation responsibly to ensure the building will serve us well into the future.  In order to ensure we have a beautiful and properly finished building we are now projecting that construction will be complete in the Fall of 2009

Thank you!

We at The 519 truly appreciate the patience, cooperation and understanding that you’ve given throughout the construction process.  The end is in sight!  Please contact Helen Rykens at 416-355-6772 or helenr@the519.org if you have any questions or concerns.
