Mohawk 4-Ice Centre, Hamilton, ON

A successful business plan was completed in October 2003. It was ratified by Hamilton City Council in February 2004. The Quad Facility (Mohawk 4) was completed December 2004. Throughout this process Nustadia Recreation was professional in every respect. Their projections were not only creative but were bang on for accuracy. The Facility is flawless in its construction and its amenities. The Hamilton Minor Hockey Council would not hesitate to recommend Nustadia Recreation to any Organization /City that requires a facility built within budget, on time, with quality and an administration group that is knowledgeable and professional”.

Town of New Tecumseth Recreation Complex, New Tecumseth, ON

As part of this exercise we have also followed up with other municipalities who have entered into similar arrangements with Nustadia / EllisDon. The feedback from those municipal units has been positive and the consortia have been given high marks. Their projects came in on time and on budget and the municipalities were satisfied with their management of the arenas. They are experienced and knowledgeable operators and have a strong understanding of the key factors which will lead to a successful project."
