The building located at the corner of Johnston St. and Portage Ave. in Sault Ste. Marie will be carefully deconstructed starting October 11th 2023. Any salvageable materials were previously removed. The lot with the building formerly known as the Harbor House was purchased in June 2023 by Famous Property Development LLC. Plans for developing the property are under review.
