BREAKING: Crane collapses at construction site in Saskatoon’s Forest Grove

Jul 5, 2025 | 12:19 PM

One person has been taken to hospital after a crane collapsed at a construction site in Saskatoon’s Forest Grove neighbourhood on Saturday morning.

The construction site, on Webster Street, is next to Forest Grove Community Church, and the site of a rental community development called The Hadley, being built by WestCliff Properties, a Saskatoon based real estate development, investment and management company.

The company’s website says The Hadley site will include “162 residential units from bachelor suites to three-bedroom units.”

Neighbours stood on their lawns as they watched rescue crews enter the structure that is under construction, and described a loud and thunderous bang that woke up the entire neighbourhood.
