24 TH E WINNIPEG INVE STOR Winnipeg projects completed Key markets Current employment Value of Winnipeg projects $5.5 billion Almost 500 Winnipeg is on the rise these days, and part of building up Winnipeg's profile means celebrating its buildings. No company has done more to help shape the city's skyline—literally—than PCL Constructors Canada Inc. From True North Square and the Canadian Museum for Human Rights to Manitoba Hydro Place and Bell MTS Place, PCL is helping Winnipeg continue to punch well above its weight in recent years by constructing these local icons. And when you combine future game-changers like the Inuit Art Centre and the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada with past landmarks like the Great-West Life building and three of the four towers at Portage and Main, it's not hard to see why PCL's reputation has grown in lockstep with Winnipeg's own. But PCL isn't just a skyward-gazing company. Cruise over the Disraeli Bridges or save time by taking the Kenaston Underpass, and you will experience PCL's contributions to Winnipeg in an entirely different way. And soon you can add the Waverly Underpass, the Pembina Underpass, and Phase 2 of the Southwest Rapid Transitway to the list of civil projects built by PCL. If you think these kinds of multimillion-dollar commercial and civil projects make PCL the go-to contractor for massive and complex builds, you would be right. But that's only part of the story. Through its special projects division, PCL champions Winnipeg on a smaller scale by partnering with clients to renovate or construct projects in the $20,000 to $10 million range. An impressive roster of past, present, and future projects has made PCL the province's largest contractor. Through it all, PCL has embraced its role as a community builder by giving back to Winnipeggers through its support of United Way's annual campaign or its sponsorship of Habitat for Humanity, among many other philanthropic initiatives. From a client's vision to PCL's expert execution, this local advocate is ready to keep telling Winnipeg's story one storey at a time. PCL Building Winnipeg together "I'm a proud Manitoban, and I've been privileged to lead PCL's Winnipeg district through an extended period of growth in our city and province. I'm convinced our best days lie ahead, and I look forward to having PCL play its part in enriching the lives of Winnipeggers while making our city a top destination for new investment."
