Terracon builds on 50 years of vision with expansion of Tuxedo Business Centre

by JEREMY DAVIS

For over 50 years, Terracon Development has shaped Winnipeg’s commercial real estate landscape, creating business parks that combine thoughtful design, functionality, and long-term value.

Its award-winning developments pair distinctive architecture with thoughtful master-planned surroundings, creating environments where businesses can thrive, collaborate, and grow. By integrating planning, design, construction, property management, and long-term stewardship under one roof, Terracon delivers projects that are purposeful, cohesive, and built for lasting success.

Now, Terracon is building on that legacy with the next phase of Tuxedo Business Centre, further expanding one of Winnipeg’s most established and successful commercial destinations.

Located at the prominent intersection of Kenaston Boulevard and Sterling Lyon Parkway, directly across from IKEA, the expansion will introduce two new commercial buildings designed to complement the existing business community while creating new opportunities for professional office, medical, and service-oriented retail tenants. Surrounded by major shopping destinations, services, employment hubs, established neighbourhoods, and growing communities, the site offers the visibility, accessibility, and convenience that help businesses become part of customers’ everyday routines.

More than simply an expansion, the newest phase of Tuxedo Business Centre is designed to make a statement. Anchoring one of Winnipeg’s highest-profile intersections, the two buildings will feature bold contemporary architecture, expansive glass façades, and a commanding presence that captures attention from every direction. Rather than blending into its surroundings, the buildings are designed to stand out, establishing a landmark at one of Winnipeg’s most desirable commercial districts.

Rising 32’ tall, the buildings will establish a distinctive presence while offering interior ceiling heights 4-5’ taller than those found in conventional office buildings. The combination of elevated ceiling heights, abundant natural light, and contemporary architecture creates a workplace environment designed to support employee satisfaction and create a strong first impression for customers and visitors.

Scheduled for completion in Q4 2027, the expansion will include more than 18,000 square feet of commercial space across two floors. Positioned at an intersection travelled by more than 100,000 vehicles each day, the development will provide exceptional exposure with prominent building signage opportunities, giving tenants the ability to establish a highly recognizable presence at one of Winnipeg’s busiest commercial intersections.

Designed with flexibility in mind, the interior can be customized to support each tenant’s unique vision, allowing businesses to tailor their spaces to operational needs, customer experience, and brand identities. Convenient access via a light-controlled intersection, combined with direct connections to the Rapid Transit corridor and active transportation paths, further enhances accessibility for customers, employees, and visitors.

This latest addition builds on the proven success of Terracon’s nearby Tuxedo Business Park, a fully leased commercial community encompassing more than 600,000 square feet across 100 acres and home to more than 45 tenants and 3,000 employees. The continued growth of the area reflects the enduring value of thoughtfully planned environments that bring together complementary businesses, amenities, and daily activity in a connected and accessible setting.

Like Terracon’s other business parks, Tuxedo Business Centre benefits from a strategic location along major transportation routes, with convenient access to shopping, hotels, and regional trade corridors. These connections help businesses remain easily accessible to customers, suppliers, employees, and visitors while supporting long-term growth.

Guided by decades of experience, Terracon continues to create commercial environments that balance today’s business needs with tomorrow’s opportunities.

The expansion of Tuxedo Business Centre represents the next chapter in that commitment, creating new opportunities within an already thriving business community and reinforcing Terracon’s ongoing investment in Winnipeg’s future.
