The redevelopment of the Leader Building was complex complete with major structural modifications to the building as well as the complexities that are involved with a restoration of an historic building. The development plan included enclosed parking, retail space and office space as well as condominiums on the upper floors.
The structural modifications included supporting the upper five storeys of the building to maximize the parking in the parkade as well as providing reinforcement and innovative scaffolding solutions for the terracotta cornice of the building.
The project was awarded the Heritage Awards by the City of Regina and the Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan in 2011 for Restoration and Heritage Architecture Excellence Award respectively.
