West Don Lands

ongoing

The West Don Lands is an inclusive, complete community – people focused, family friendly, environmentally sustainable and beautifully designed for living. Through thoughtful community engagement and collaboration with government partners, we created an award-winning master plan to transform 32 hectares (80 acres) of former industrial lands into a pedestrian-focused community built around parks, with housing for people of all ages, income levels and abilities, well-served by transit, retail and community amenities, and based on stringent sustainability requirements. When complete, the West Don Lands will feature about 6,000 new residential units, 20 per cent of which will be affordable residences, ample employment and commercial space, at least one elementary school, and two child-care centres, all surrounded by nearly 9.3 hectares (23 acres) of parks and public spaces. Importantly, all developments must meet our Minimum Green Building Requirements and have achieved a LEED Gold certification, honouring our vision for green and sustainable communities.
