construction and contract administration including resident site
services, cost, scheduling and project control and commissioning
services required for this project. Construction shall be

Postal Station B (PSB) is a 'Classified' federal heritage

that has not undergone a comprehensive rehabilitation since its
original construction.
The project scope of work includes the following: envelope
conservation, interior architectural work (including asbestos
abatement), heating system replacement, plumbing system upgrade,
HVAC upgrade, sprinkler upgrade, electrical system upgrade,
control system upgrade, and seismic upgrade.
The construction cost estimate is $25,666,000.00, HST excluded.
