'People are trickling back': Hundreds of workers return to downtown Winnipeg offices
CTV
CTV News contacted four of downtown Winnipeg’s notable employers to get a sense of how many workers have returned to their respective offices as of June 2023 and how those numbers compared to how many each employed downtown in 2019.
As the sun rises on downtown Winnipeg, Tim Taylor starts his day at Tapper Cuddy LLP amidst his fellow legal scholars and colleagues. It’s a start to the day that would have looked a lot different just a few years ago.
On his drive to work, Taylor, a partner at the firm notices the downtown feels more lively than it did a year ago.
“In the office, it feels back to normal, rush hour feels back to normal, it feels like downtown has a pulse and a busyness,” Taylor said.
He’s just one of thousands of workers that have come back to work downtown since the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Coming back to the office has been good, it turns out I actually like the people I work with, so it’s good to enjoy their company during a work day,” Taylor said.
