As the founder of Winnipeg’s Electra Sign in 1979, I have had the privilege of partnering with PCL Construction on projects throughout Western Canada. It is fitting that the last project management role as President of Electra Sign was the new pylon sign outside of PCL’s new headquarters off McGillivray in Winnipeg. 

Developed with Architecture 49’s innovative concept and despite its bureaucratic challenges the project stands proud in front of its signature property. Features include a custom galvanized space frame that is clad with a powder-coated perforated aluminum panel. This treatment allows for a subtle programmable internal RBG wall wash system. Further, the PCL logo signs are backlit with the latest high output, high efficiency LED technology. 

I would like to thank Rupert Marshall, Mackenzie Gmiterek and the entire PCL team for this opportunity, all past opportunities and look forward to a continued partnership in my new role of account and project management at Electra Sign.

Photo Central has been serving Winnipeg's photographers since 1975. Originally named Independent Photo Centre, the store was managed by Dick Toews who eventually took over as owner in 1991 and gave the business its current name. Continuing to grow and adapt, Photo Central has seen many changes over the years with the massive shift to digital products it now offers. In 2008 Photo Central was purchased by Dick’s son Andrew who has continued to ensure the store flourishes amongst a rapidly changing marketplace, while ensuring a great experience that begins in-store and lasts as you continue your photographic journey with your new equipment at your side. 

Along with its strong online presence, Photo Central recognizes the continuing value of their brick and mortar operation. With massive traffic counts on their Portage Avenue location here in Winnipeg, the value of effective signage was not to be taken lightly. In the Fall of 2019, Photo Central took on a fresh coat of paint and greatly increased its presence and visibility with a new logo and LED signage, custom manufactured by the Electra Sign team. Our LED technology ensures that the signs are bright enough to engage traffic and further create awareness for their brand.  

Drop by and explore the commitment to ideals that Andrew and his team have to offer; from traditional to the latest technology in photography, accessories, and training. Once you enter the store, expect to stay awhile and learn why Photo Central has a history in Winnipeg.
