Buchanan Block C Elevator Modernization begins June 23

Construction period: June 23 – End of August 2025

Construction on the Buchanan Block C Elevator Modernization is anticipated to begin on June 23 and estimated to be complete by the end of August 2025.

The project will fully upgrade the elevator, and renew the equipment and components to improve safety, reliability, and efficiency.

Here’s what to expect

  • There will be no access to this elevator for the duration of construction. To access other floors: 
    • Access to Buchanan C Floors 1 and 2 via Block D elevator, connects to the north end of Block C 
    • Access to Buchanan C Floors 3 and 4 – via stairs only on the north or south end of Block C 
    • Access to Buchanan B Penthouse (B500, B501, B502, B503) – via stairs only on the south end of Block C and north end of Block B
  • Elevator technicians will be mostly working in the elevator shaft, elevator machine room and at times in the elevator lobbies.
  • Some noise generated from within the elevator shaft and the elevator machine room.
