Queen & Berkeley
City Council adopted the Zoning By-law Amendment approval item on July 29-31, 2026, following Toronto and East York Community Council’s July 8-9 consideration. The approval permits a 49-storey, 162.7-metre mixed-use building with 545 residential units, including seven replacement rental units, approximately 350 sq. m of ground-floor non-residential GFA, and a minimum 143 sq. m on-site parkland dedication.
