Kingston Jamaica: The Urban Development Corporation (UDC) advises that the Office Centre Building, located at 12 Ocean Boulevard, Downtown Kingston will remain closed on Thursday 27th and Friday 28th August, 2020. The Office Centre Building was first closed on Tuesday 25th and Wednesday 26th August, 2020 further to confirmation of a COVID-19 case on a tenanted floor.
Since the initial closure, the Ministry of Health and Wellness (MOHW) has confirmed a second case of COVID-19 on another tenanted floor of the Office Centre Building and as such, the Corporation is undertaking deep cleaning and sanitization of all common areas.
