A recent career milestone for Mr. McGean was the opportunity to participate in the planning, development, and construction phases of the award-winning Port Hawkesbury Civic Centre. This is a multi-purpose facility, designed to accommodate civic, cultural, and recreational facilities under one roof, while adding to the community services already present in the Strait Area Educational and Recreational Centre.
