Closing science centre unnecessary, says firm of architect who designed building

TORONTO — The firm of the architect who designed the Ontario Science Centre says closing the building is not necessary and it is offering its services free of charge to the provincial government for roof repairs.

Ontario announced mid-day Friday that the science centre would permanently close in that location at the end of the day after the province received an engineering report on the state of the roof.

But it is not the only option presented in the report, and the firm of the late architect Raymond Moriyama says in a statement today that the scale of repairs is manageable and it is offering its architectural services pro bono to help accomplish them.
