File #		MA-020395-2


Institution/HIC		City of Toronto


Summary		Since it opened in 1927, Toronto’s Union Station has served as a major railway transportation hub. In August 2000 the City of Toronto (the City) purchased Union Station from the Toronto Terminals Railway Company. At that time, City Council authorized the City’s Commissioner of Corporate Services to prepare and issue an international request for expressions of interest (REOI) to determine the extent of private sector interest in the restoration, revitalization and management of Union Station (the project). The City issued the REOI in January 2001. After receiving a number of expressions of interest, the City decided to narrow the field to three “pre-qualified proponents”, and sent a request for proposals (RFP) to the three companies in August 2001; only two responded with proposals (the first and second affected parties). The City then organized a selection committee composed of three City Commissioners, an outside heritage consultant and two representatives of Transport Canada. The selection committee was to evaluate the proposals, with the assistance of six “technical review teams”. Those teams provided assistance to the selection committee in six discrete areas: Development Concept Heritage Commercial Development and Operations Project Management Business Plan Overall Quality and Cohesiveness The teams were composed of City staff, government representatives and outside consultants.
