Stadium, Bleachers, Sports Complex and Parking Lot

Our mandate was to revitalize Lansdowne Park, a historic sports complex in Ottawa. Despite the 400 workers to coordinate, the project's complexity and a wide range of criteria, we effectively transformed the complex into a full-fledged urban village designed for pedestrians.


Specifically, the project consisted of the following:

  • Rehabilitating the existing stadium.
  • Building new bleachers on the north side.
  • Building 24,000 bleacher seats on the south side.
  • Renovating the Civic Centre, home to the Ottawa 67's junior hockey team.
  • Installing more than 3 km of various underground services.
  • Incorporating 47,000 m2 of underground parking and 1,370 spaces.
  • Building two underground reservoirs to collect rainwater from the site.
  • Installing the main berm to serve as a meeting place at the end of construction.
  • Supervising the construction.

Prior to construction, we also participated in the structural design process to optimize the reinforcements of the buildings above the underground parking lot. We also designed the electromechanical components to optimize their distribution and streamline the structure accordingly.

Our Challenge

Complex Coordination & Supervision

We had to fast-track the project with strict criteria and complex planning. Our mandate called for us to oversee the work of nearly 400 employees at the project's peak.
