$21.8 million in building permits issued last month was up from $6.25 million during the same period last year
After a relatively slow start compared to last year, the Sault's building activity picked up considerably in March, more than triple what it was during the same month last year.
Major permits issued last month included addition of three new classrooms at Tarentorus Public School at 96 Northwood St., with a learning commons and child care area and mechanical/electrical upgrades totalling $7.5 million. Last year, local building activity reached an all-time record of $259 million, boosted by major projects at Algoma Steel and Tenaris.
Before 2022, the Sault's previous building-boom record was in 2007, with $231 million in permits issued including the new Sault Area Hospital.
