The Proposal

Learn more about the site and the proposed development for 835-839 Yonge Street

The Site

Today, the site includes a Canadian Tire store, with a dedicated Party City section, and a Canadian Tire gas station. The site also includes a parking lot. 

The site is conveniently located in midtown, in close proximity to several transit stations, public amenities and parks. Our project considers the diverse range of services and amenities, buildings and open spaces surrounding this location in its design and uses.

Key Features

Enhanced Public Realm Experience

The project includes a 770m²privately owned publicly accessible space (POPS) at the corner of Yonge Street and Church Street. The POPS will transform this space from a car-oriented space (currently a gas bar) to an open pedestrian-oriented space.

The project will also widen portions of the sidewalk along Yonge Street up to 13 metres, providing for additional landscaping opportunities and space for pedestrians. As well, the site will provide for a signalized intersection north of the Yonge Street and Church Street intersection, providing for a safer pedestrian experience.

Retail Uses

The project will provide more retail space in the new building, in comparison to what is currently provided. Canadian Tire intends to be a retailer in the new building, and provide additional retail space opportunities. Visitors will enter the store through the retained heritage façade fronting on Yonge Street, separate from the residential entrances.

Residential Uses

The project will add new housing options to an area well serviced by transit, amenities, and retail. Residents can enter the residential towers in entrances separate from the retail spaces. The north tower is 49-storeys and the south tower is 41-storeys.
