It doesn't appear there will be major external changes, apart from the entrance; quoting the Record article:
200 more people working downtown is definitely good news, it's part of the virtuous circle.
Quote:Deloitte's regional office current employs 170 people in 28,000 square feet of space. It expects to have at least 200 people working in the new offices when they are ready in September 2017. The space at 195 Joseph St. will be a little smaller than the current location, but it will accommodate more employees with its open and collaborative work spaces.

Allied will spend more than $10 million on redeveloping 195 Joseph and building a surface parking lot between the building and Victoria Street. Deloitte signed a lease to be in the space for at least 15 years. The building will undergo a complete restoration and retrofit with only modest changes to the exterior.
"We are going to do a little bit of new work in the middle to create what I think will be a spectacular entrance to that heritage space," Emory said. "It is going to be a comprehensive restoration. It is very expensive."
