Site work, new construction and renovation of a museum in Toronto, Ontario. Completed plans call for the construction of a 200,000-square-foot, two-story above grade museum; for site work for a museum; and for the renovation of a 80,000-square-foot museum.

The new Ontario Science Centre (OSC) will support the redevelopment vision of Ontario Place to celebrate its heritage and original vision and legacy as a destination for all Ontarians to enjoy. With 200,000 square feet of newly built space and approximately 80,000 square feet of renovations, the new OSC will be a state-of-the-art facility embodying innovative science programming, design excellence and sustainability principles. The existing heritage structures, the Pods, Cinesphere and connecting bridge system, will be incorporated into the OSC programming. The new building will be located on the north end of Ontario Place (the mainland) at Lakeshore Boulevard West. The Project will be delivered using the P3 Design-Build-Finance-Maintain (Semi-Wide Equity) delivery model. The RFQ is the first step in the process to select a team to help deliver the project. Submissions will be reviewed to shortlist teams with the required design and construction experience, as well as the financial capacity to deliver a project of this size and complexity. Shortlisted teams will be invited to respond to a Request for Proposal (RFP), which is expected to be released in late 2024. Interested companies must register with merx.com to download the RFQ.
