What is currently a surface parking lot at 805 Don Mills Road will be transformed into an improved public realm and streetscape within a mixed-income development adjacent to the new Eglinton Crosstown LRT Science Centre Station and Ontario Line. The development will include 840 new homes, with 286 of those being affordable rental units. The development will also complete the realignment of Ferrand Drive and create a new public street. 

By maximizing the site’s potential, we can deliver a more inclusive and livable neighbourhood within the Don Valley East community.

805 Don Mills Road is a project part of the Housing Now Initiative to invest in City-owned lands across Toronto for the development of affordable housing within mixed-income, mixed-use and transit-oriented communities. The Zoning was approved in June 2022.
