A transformation is underway along Toronto’s downtown waterfront. In the last 15 years, parking lots and derelict buildings have given way to new accessible, beautiful and inclusive neighbourhoods. By leading with architecturally distinctive and culturally meaningful design and innovative approaches to green building, we will take our place as a top waterfront city.

Who's Leading This Transformation?

 

Waterfront Toronto came together in 2001 to tackle big issues that only collaboration across all three levels of government could solve. As city-builders, we care about delivering distinctive neighbourhoods, destinations and experiences where natural and urban environments interconnect.
