Original site
Further information: Concourse Building100 Adelaide Street West originally housed the Concourse Building, an a 14-story Art Deco building that opened in 1928. The building was famous for its mosaics, designed by Group of Seven member J.E.H. MacDonald. Oxford Properties took control of the building in 1998 and released plans to replace the Concourse Building with a new tower.
The decision to demolish the Concourse Building was controversial, but the Toronto city council ultimately voted in favor of the demolition in May 2000.
New building
Oxford released plans for the new building on June 17, 2013. The new proposal also announced that the building would be renamed from 100 Adelaide Street West, the street address of the site, to Ernst & Young Tower. Ernst and Young, the primary tenant of the new building, will be leasing 225,000 square feet of office space.
When finished, Ernst & Young Tower will be 617 feet high, with 42 floors and a total area of 900,000 square feet. The base of the new tower will include the south and east walls of the original Concourse Building and will be integrated into the PATH as part of Oxford’s Richmond-Adelaide Centre. The anchor tenants of the building will be Ernst & Young and TMX Group. The new building is already 45% pre-leased. In addition to a new public space and renovated entrance through the Concourse Building, the tower will also feature a 5,000 square foot outdoor terrace on the 6th floor. When complete, the building will be LEED Platinum certified. The tower is currently under construction and will be completed by 2017.
