Demolition At Old Sarnia Hospital Site Underway (GALLERY)

If you've driven by the old Sarnia General Hospital site on Mitton St. you've likely seen heavy equipment on site. Demolition of the former nursing residence started Friday and the power stack has already been removed.

GFIVE Inc. purchased the property earlier this year and is planning to build a multi-faceted development -- which may also include a new Withdrawal Management Centre proposed by Bluewater Health.

As part of the sale, the city committed $5.3-million toward demolition and remediation of the site.
