Toronto’s spectacular waterfront transformation will eventually be home to 80,000 residents. It will become a connected series of glorious natural blue vistas, green spaces and communities that achieve a remarkable balance between architecture and nature.

At the heart of our plans to reconnect people with the waterfront are liveable mixed-use neighbourhoods inspired by their unique locations. These beautiful new waterfront neighbourhoods will include housing options to welcome individuals and families of all income levels and stages of life. Child-care centres, schools and local amenities are carefully woven into the fabric of these neighbourhoods, allowing people of all ages to call the water’s edge their home.

By utilizing the best in urban design and by planning streetscapes on a human scale, we give priority to pedestrians, cyclists and transit vehicles while balancing the needs of those with cars. Waterfront Toronto employs a transit-first approach, which means public transit will always be within five minutes of where people live and work. In addition, we’re developing bike paths and pedestrian linkages between waterfront neighbourhoods and the rest of the city.

The first opportunity to live in our new blue edge is in the community of West Don Lands. Loft-styled condos and townhomes are available for purchase in the River City development. This is the first LEED Gold carbon-neutral residential development in Canada.
