A piece of Saskatoon history, the Granite Curling Club building, is on the market.
A piece of Saskatoon history, the Granite Curling Club building, is on the market.
The club opened its rink at 480 1st Avenue North on Dec. 20, 1929. But with declining membership and the steep cost of repairs, its doors closed for good, after 93 years.
Real estate agency Colliers is representing the sale as a tender — meaning buyers will put forward their offers all at once.
“The tender process is that everyone brings their offer in at the same time,” Keith Webb, the vice president of Colliers International, tells CTV News.
“The club will go through, decide which one they want to go with — not necessarily always the highest price, but who will do the best job or what they see for the future.”
Prospective buyers must submit their offers by 2 p.m. on March 31.
Webb says because of the property’s zoning, there’s a range of possibilities of what could takeover the Granite.
