The Story

EllisDon constructed a new practice and training facility for the Toronto Raptors of the NBA. The program totals 55,000 SF, and the facility includes a team parking area, situated beneath the facility, two full size basketball courts, a weight room, therapy and administration areas, a locker room, video replay viewing space and a full service kitchen and lunch room.

Before the construction work started, EllisDon worked with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment Ltd. and ICON to provide cost estimating, site evaluation, a constructability review, preconstruction planning and other preconstruction services.
