Yes it will be a hockey arena, and yes the old building had a hockey arena. The last section above shows the hockey arena and gym.

Might be a bit of a dumb question but the drawings appear to have a zamboni room which suggests this will be a hockey arena. Did the old building have a hockey arena? I just remember a big basketball gym there but that was from 20 years ago. If the new building has a hockey arena, where is the gym for the basketball and volleyball teams going to be and if my memory is correct, why the switch from favouring gym sports to ice sports?

Take a look at it here

I really like it, as a SAIT Alumni, it actually gives me a lot of pride to see something like this. I mean I'm not thrilled to see another copper coloured building but if this cladding is better than the BMO than they just threw some egg in CMLC and the Stampede's face. I mean it even has wood accents!

Materials I can see listed:
(Panel) TERRACOTTA FIBREC CONCRETE PANELS
(Window) TRIPLE GLAZED ALUMINUM CURTAIN WALL C/W FINS, ANODIZED BRONZE ALUMINUM
(Roof Accent) HEMLOCK WOOD SOFFIT
(Ground Floor Trim) CONCRETE CANOPY, SANDSTONE

Maybe just me, but I enjoyed seeing/combing through the layout.

No swimming pool in this new version? Too bad, and a bit of a potential missed opportunity with the Eau Claire YMCA gone now.
