St Clair College Media school in core could attract 1,000

October 27, 2009

City council fast-tracked plans Monday to convert a dilapidated, vacant city-owned building into a $5-million state-of-the-art St. Clair College media and public relations school.

The college will transfer 220 students into the 16,000-square- foot "media plex" on the corner of Victoria Avenue and University Avenue West with hopes that eventually up to 1,000 students may attend the downtown satellite campus inside the former Salvation Army building.

The city purchased the building in the late 1990s with the idea to use it as a storage facility and teaching centre in tandem with the Capitol Theatre, but those plans never materialized and the building has sat vacant for over a decade.
