CTV News Article

As part of the City of Ottawa’s Confederation Boulevard – Sussex Drive Reconstruction Project, CDS Building Movers was sub-contracted to move two heritage buildings to accommodate the widening of Sussex Drive.  The first phase was to relocate a two-storey brick house at the corner of Sussex Drive and Bolton Street back (east) approximately 35 feet.  A few weeks later CDS moved a 300 ton brick triplex at 275 – 279 Sussex Drive approximately 40 feet east in order to accommodate the road widening.

CTV News was on site to capture the triplex move and broadcast the story on the 6:00 p.m. evening news on Monday, May 5, 2014.

Check out this Video of the building being moved on Sussex.
