 That same year, a major fundraising campaign was launched as construction of a new building on the exact site of the old was started.Even though construction began in 1958, during the modernist era, the symmetry of the original structure, as well as a clock tower, were repeated, yet instead of a Romanesque Revival style a simplified Georgian was used.In the summer of 1959, Governor General Vincent Massey laid the cornerstone, Field Marshal Montgomery, 1st Viscount Montgomery of Alamein dedicated the new front doors on April 28, 1960, and the new building was officially opened by Vincent Massey and Edward Peacock on September 28.
