SickKids: Did you know?

PCL Constructors took control of the PSC site 1,351 days ago and officially broke ground in October, 2019

During the two years of structural construction, approximately 25,000 cu. m. of concrete, enough to build a standard sidewalk between SickKids and Peterborough, was utilized on the site.

Approximately 2,230 metric tons of rebar was utilized for the building’s structure, which is equivalent to the weight of 318 elephants.
