Historic Regina Courthouse Building Renewed

Released on September 24, 2015

Reconstruction work on Regina’s historic Victoria Avenue Courthouse is now complete.

The multi-year project, which was undertaken to preserve the heritage nature of the facility and prolong the life of the building for years to come, wrapped up with completion of the landscaping surrounding the building.

“I’m proud to say that work on the courthouse was recently honoured with the Lieutenant Governor’s Heritage Architecture Excellence Award for Conservation,” Central Services Minister Jennifer Campeau said.  “The award is a testament to the ingenuity of everyone involved in the project, and to our government’s commitment to preserving our architectural heritage.”

Originally constructed during 1959-60, the major portion of the reconstruction work involved removing and rebuilding most of the exterior stone of the building, along with portions of the interior support walls.  In order to meet heritage guidelines, all materials and work methodologies used had to replicate those of the original construction.

“The attention to detail in this restoration project is truly remarkable and greatly appreciated,” Justice Minister and Attorney General Gordon Wyant said.  “This project ensures that one of the province’s most significant courthouses will continue serving Saskatchewan people for many years to come.”

Work on the facility was co-ordinated to ensure that court proceedings were not disrupted during construction.

The project is one of many undertaken in recent years to ensure Saskatchewan’s history and architectural past can be seen and appreciated by generations to come.
