Courtyard Walls Demolition
December 2023
The original exercise walls were constructed shortly after the jail building in 1863. These walls proved inadequate and were replaced in 1989. The building ceased being an operational jail in 2003. An inspection of the walls by City of Kawartha Lakes staff in 2017 proved the walls were no longer safe and plans for demolition began. B.E. Construction was awarded the contract and the walls were removed in December 2023.
