The Intact Centre is an office building located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada that serves as the head offices of Ontario Power Generation (OPG) and Intact Financial. The University of Toronto's Department of Statistical Science and Department of Sociology are also located inside.[1][2] It was originally built in 1975 for Ontario Hydro (of which OPG is a successor company) and has been previously known as Hydro Place, Ontario Hydro Building and Ontario Power Building. The building was designed by Kenneth R. Cooper, Adamson Associates served as the architect of record.[3] The building is owned by Triovest.[citation needed]
In 2015 the Minister of Energy directed OPG to sell 700 University Avenue and the parking garage at 40 Murray Street. The sale took place in January 2017. Proceeds were deposited in Ontario's Trillium Trust, which funds various infrastructure projects in Ontario.[4][5]
