Thunder Bay Consolidated Courthouse
Torys acted as counsel to Forum Equity Partners as a shortlisted proponent for the Thunder Bay Consolidated Courthouse PPP project to design, build, finance and maintain a new facility in downtown Thunder Bay, Ontario.
The project consolidated the Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice, previously operated in separate locations in Thunder Bay, into one modern facility.
Highlights of the new facility include:
- a new multi-storey building with space to accommodate 15 courtrooms, including a Multiple Accused High Security courtroom
- four conference/settlement suites, including the province's first Aboriginal Conference Settlement Suite
- barrier-free design including public access to courtrooms, infrared hearing assistance and barrier-free witness stand and jury box
- enhanced accommodation for interpretation including one jury room permanently equipped for simultaneous interpretation and two portable interpretation booths
- a glazed atrium that brings natural light deep into the building
- capacity for expansion and internal flexibility to ensure maximum usefulness throughout its lifetime
Further information on the project can be found on Infrastructure Ontario's website.
Torys acted as counsel with a team that included Mark Bain, Dan Ford and Tara Mackay.
