Site work and renovation of an educational facility in Vancouver, British Columbia. Completed plans call for the renovation of a educational facility; and for site work for a educational facility.

The University of British Columbia is converting the Earth Science Building (ESB) at 2207 Main Mall from three existing gas-fired boilers to the UBC Academic District Energy System (DES) through a new Energy Transfer Station (ETS). The ESB is a five-storey occupied academic teaching and research building that will remain fully operational, with classes running, for the duration of the work. Heat to the building must be maintained at all times. Question Deadline 10/16/2026 at 12:00 AM PT Questions shall be submitted in writing by email to VPAC no later than, Responses will be issued to all Bidders by addendum without identifying the source of the question.
