A new entertainment facility that’s slated for construction on the Exhibition grounds in Toronto is getting set to break ground “early next year” with the expectation that it won’t cost any taxpayer dollars.
OverActive Media, a Toronto-based company that owns a number of esports franchises including the Toronto Defiant and the Toronto Ultra, first announced this facility back in February.
The building is projected to be a 7,200-seat entertainment facility built just to the west of the Stanley Barracks along Lake Shore Boulevard in Toronto with an expected completion date of 2025.
