360 Main is a 32-storey office tower located near Portage and Main in downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba.[2]

The tower was originally known as the Commodity Exchange tower. Although the naming rights expired in 1990, it was not officially renamed to 360 Main until 2010.[3] Throughout this time it has been unofficially known as the Trizec building.

Constructed in 1979, it is connected to the Winnipeg Square underground shopping mall.[2] 360 Main Street contains 599,420 square feet (55,688 m2) of leasable area. 56,976 square feet (5,293.2 m2) of which contains retail space in Winnipeg Square.[2] The building was certified as BOMA Best Level 3 in 2011.[2][4]

The tower was purchased from Oxford Properties Group and GE Capital Canada Inc in September 2007 by Crown Realty Partners, a Toronto-based company.[5] The purchase included the Winnipeg Square shopping mall and totalled approximately $102.5 million.[6] 360 Main is currently owned by Artis REIT, a Real Estate Investment Trust from Winnipeg.

Recently in late 2016 Artis REIT announced that 360 Main would be completely recladded in glass and the pad to the south would finally be developed. 300 Main was announced to be residential 44 story building. With completion in 2018 or 2019 with potential it being the new tallest building in Winnipeg.
