Site clearing has been completed and crews from PCL are now installing the concrete foundation for a new, $136-million, multi-purpose Ministry of Defence facility in Yellowknife, N.W.T.
The 9,200-square-metre structure is being built in the Engle Business District, adjacent to Yellowknife Airport, and will consolidate defence, security and technical personnel from the Department of National Defence (DND) in one location.
The facility will improve the ability of the armed forces to deploy in the N.W.T. and feature offices and classroom space for administrative, training and tactical exercises, an assembly space that will double as a drill hall, and more room for vehicle maintenance and warehouse storage.
