Currently, crews are tearing down the existing Sault Ste. Marie Memorial Gardens on the corner of Queen, Bruce and Bay Streets and beside it resurrecting the new 120,000-square-foot event centre with 5,000 seats and several luxury suites. Originally, there were to be 13 suites located on the third floor of the complex, but the city is campaigning to sell 13 additional suites. This is considered phase two of the project, which is currently being priced by Bonfield. Included in the estimate will be a phase three, where more luxury suites could become available if the demand is high.
