There is still no deal in place but pre-construction work for Irving Oil’s new headquarters on Long Wharf is moving ahead. The company has confirmed it resumed work today after site development took place earlier this year. The work over the next two months includes driving foundation piles into the proposed building footprint and the installation of over 300 steel beams driven into the site’s sub-surfaces.
There will be no construction activity on the site when cruise ships are berthed at Long Wharf. Irving Oil is still awaiting approval of the building through the municipal re-zoning application or the Federal Minister’s approval of the 99 year lease and land agreement
