CreateTO is the City of Toronto’s real estate agency and a catalyst for city building. The agency brings together stakeholders, partners and community members to create opportunities to ensure the best use of the City’s real estate assets for today and tomorrow. Toronto has more than 8,000 properties within its real estate portfolio. And, CreateTO has a team of real estate and development experts that are continually looking for new and better ways to use those assets. For the first time in Toronto’s history, one agency has been given the mandate to take a strategic, whole of government, city-wide approach towards the delivery of real estate services. The onus is on CreateTO to be practical, fiscally responsible, and to deliver value to the City and the people who live here. CreateTO is committed to working with our partners to build a more livable city – and that means identifying opportunities to pursue initiatives like building more affordable housing, creating transit-oriented developments, establishing new parks, cleaning up brownfield sites, and restoring heritage properties. Working in partnership with our City partners and stakeholders, CreateTO has the potential to have a tremendous impact on creating more livable, inclusive communities across Toronto.

The staff at CreateTO love to give back during the holiday season, and for the third year, we provided holiday assistance to three families in need through BGC Toronto Kiwanis. We provided toys and gifts, clothing, food vouchers and other wish list items for families, children and youth that may otherwise go without. Thanks to our CreateTO elves who are helping to bring some holiday magic to these families in the coming weeks!
#ICYMI Last month, on behalf of the City of Toronto, we announced the start of construction at 50 Wilson Heights Boulevard alongside Greenwin Corp., Tridel and KingSett Capital.

Project spotlight – 610 Bay Street! There are many things to highlight about the re-imaged City-owned land at 610 Bay Street and 130 Elizabeth Street, the former site of the Toronto Coach Terminal. 🏢 Housing: The development will include 100 per cent purpose-built rentals with 873 new units, including 290 affordable rentals, in the heart of Toronto and within walking distance of the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) subway. The project team plans to propose housing options for essential hospital workers and their families. 🏥 Paramedic Hub and Healthcare: A new 20,000 sq. ft. Toronto Paramedics Hub will provide vital emergency support to surrounding communities, while University Health Network’s state-of-the-art organ repair centre at 130 Elizabeth Street will use drone technology to transform healthcare delivery. 🌿 Public Realm: The public realm will be enhanced through the creation of a new public plaza, designed by CCxA, and is imagined as an urban oasis that will incorporate a series of ‘outdoor rooms’ nestled between green vegetation. 🌍 Sustainability: The project will achieve Version 4, Tier 2 of the Toronto Green Standard and the Canadian Green Building Council’s Zero Carbon Building Design Certification. Embodied carbon will be reduced by carefully selecting building materials and using a unique structural design. ✏️ Design: Led by world-renowned, award-winning architecture firm Studio Gang, architectsAlliance and Smoke Architecture Inc., the vision for 610 Bay Street and 130 Elizabeth Street, dubbed ‘The Urban Valley’, is rooted in the Indigenous principle of the Seven Directions of Connectedness while celebrating the historical importance and character of the iconic Art Deco Coach Terminal.
