Wycliffe Homes<\/a> received settlement approval for a revised 12-storey proposal at 464 Royal York Road just north of Evans Avenue, maintaining the previously proposed<\/a> 41.34m height, with no changes to massing. With a design by Vincent J. Santamaura Architect<\/a>, the Mimico-area building would deliver 112 market-rate rental apartments, decreased by one from 113.<\/p>\n
Trinity Point Development<\/a> reached a settlement with the City for an 11-storey mixed-use building at 2801 Keele Street a block north of Wilson Avenue in Downsview, increasing the unit count<\/a> from 186 to 192. Designed by Graziani + Corazza Architects<\/a>, it maintains the proposed height of 44.27m, with updated park considerations addressed through conditions of approval.<\/p>\n
A revised proposal for 3019 Dufferin Street a block south of Lawrence Avenue, seeks to replace a previously approved 7-storey, 105-unit design<\/a> with a 29-storey mixed-use condominium tower containing 332 residential units. Designed by Architecture Unfolded<\/a> and having undergone a change in ownership, the 91m-tall project in Glen Park remains under appeal, with City Council directing staff to oppose the proposal at the Ontario Land Tribunal due to concerns over appropriate built form, height, setbacks, and transition for the area.<\/p>\n
City Council adopted a settlement approach to address four site-specific appeals affecting the Wilson South area of the Downsview Secondary Plan, following its approval in May, 2024 and partial enactment in August, 2024. The remainder of the Secondary Plan, covering the vast majority of the Downsview lands, remains in full force and effect as Toronto prepares for one of its largest long-term redevelopment efforts<\/a>.<\/p>\n
Fieldgate Urban<\/a> reached a settlement for its proposal at 670 Progress Avenue on its northeast corner with Consilium Place, with the settlement technical in nature following adoption of the same plan in 2024; compared to the plan previously rejected by Council in 2023<\/a>, it increased the total unit count from 3,105 to 3,203 across seven towers ranging from 18 to 54 storeys. Featuring a design by Arcadis<\/a>, the revised plan includes a phased on-site parkland dedication totalling 2,640m\u00b2, and secures public realm improvements and potential in-kind community benefits as part of the multi-use transformation of the Scarborough City Centre area.<\/p>\n
Hazelview Investments<\/a> reached a settlement with the City for a revised three-tower development at 123 Bellamy Road North, just north of Eglinton Avenue and Eglinton GO station, now rising 10, 35, and 39 storeys with a maximum height of 129.45m and replacing the previously proposed 44-storey tower<\/a> with a shorter 39-storey version. Designed by Graziani + Corazza Architects<\/a>, the revised plan maintains three buildings while reducing overall unit count from 922 to 885, and continues to propose a market-rate rental community in South Cedarbrae\u2014Eglinton East.<\/p>\n
Pemberton Group<\/a> reached a settlement with the City for a revised three-building development at 849 Eglinton Avenue East, just east of Laird station on Eglinton Line 5, now rising 7, 21, and 33 storeys with 770 residential units, up slightly from the previous 747-unit plan<\/a> that topped out at 32 storeys. With a design by BDP Quadrangle<\/a>, the revised mixed-use plan for the Leaside site includes 764 condominium units and 6 market-rate rental units across a 14,157m\u00b2 site.<\/p>\n
At 645 Northcliffe Boulevard, near Fairbank station on Eglinton Line 5, Stanford Homes<\/a> secured settlement approval for a 42-storey residential tower rising 143.35m and containing 336 condominium units, more than doubling the height and unit count from the previously proposed 15-storey, 159-unit plan<\/a>. Featuring a design by Superk\u00fcl<\/a>, the development represents a significant intensification of the Oakwood\u2013Vaughan site, with off-site parkland dedication or cash-in-lieu contributions secured as part of the approval.<\/p>\n
Cityzen Group<\/a> and Tercot Communities<\/a> reached a settlement with the City on a revised proposal for a 45-storey, 150.55m mixed-use tower at 2485 Eglinton Avenue West, walking distance from Caledonia station on Eglinton Line 5 and likely a GO station by the time this could be built, increasing the unit count<\/a> from 500 to 519 and storeys from 46 to 45. Designed by gh3<\/a>, it would include 578 bicycle parking spaces, and 69 vehicular spaces, with 110m\u00b2 of ground-level commercial space.<\/p>\n
European Bakery Supply Inc<\/a> secured a settlement with the City for a mixed-use development at 323 Symington Avenue just north of Dupont Street featuring towers of 29 and 39 storeys and 825 condominium units, a slight increase from the previous 817-unit plan<\/a> that included a 36-storey tower.

City Council adopted confidential settlement instructions related to appeals affecting the Ookwemin Minising Precinct Plan, the first new community planned within the Port Lands revitalization. While full details remain confidential, the settlement pertains to one of Toronto\u2019s most significant waterfront redevelopment areas, envisioned to deliver approximately 14,000 residential units alongside 50 acres of parkland and public space.<\/p>\n
Council amended its prior decision on the Lower Don Lands precinct to approve a revised settlement for 65 Ookwemin Street, where Castlepoint Numa<\/a> proposes four towers rising 20, 31, 32, and 45, storeys with 1,879 residential units, an update from the previous design of three towers from eight to 47 storeys, that integrates the site into the broader Ookwemin Minising Precinct Plan. Designed by SvN<\/a> with heritage input from ERA Architects<\/a>, the mixed-use proposal includes commercial uses, and precinct-wide planning amendments for the Lower Don Lands, and advances discussions with Waterfront Toronto to increase affordable housing targets.<\/p>\n
