Health and Social Innovation Centre

A building like no other

December 2025

Progress on the Health and Social Innovation Centre (HSIC) continues.

Concrete will continue to be placed within the building. Civil work surrounding the building on all sides including the quad area will bring earth up to finish grade levels with the light pole bases installed. The Healing Garden layout will start to become identifiable as we shape the earth in that area.

Glazing installation will continue on the north and south sides of the building. Roof work will continue as sections of the building progress to help achieve a water-tight building envelope.

The building hoardings will be secured and added to help mitigate inclement winter weather issues while on-going wall framing, plumbing, ventilation, and electrical work progresses. Final miscellaneous metal work continues on handrails and structural brackets.

Underground infrastructure upgrades within the quad area continues. This includes a new roof on the existing tunnel system between Hazen Hall and Ganong Hall, extending across the front of the HSIC.

Please note the tunnels leading through the new home of the HSIC remain closed.

For safety purposes everyone is encouraged to avoid the construction zones and to use the pedestrian tunnel between Hazen Hall and Oland Hall in lieu of exiting onto the quad.
