Item - 2026.PH28.1

The Planning and Housing Committee recommends that:

1. City Council repeal and replace Site-specific Zoning By-law 1067-2024 for the lands municipally known as 150 Queens Wharf Road substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment, included as Attachment 6 to the report (February 10, 2026) from the Executive Director, Development Review.

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Zoning By-law Amendment as may be required.

The Planning and Housing Committee held a Statutory Public Meeting on February 26, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of an application by Toronto Community Housing Corporation (TCHC) to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a 37-storey mixed-used building with 268 rental dwelling units (including up to 80 affordable units). The site will also include a new EarlyON Centre with programmable outdoor space, as well as an east-west pedestrian connection through the site linking Queens Wharf Road to the future Lower Garrison Creek Park.

In 2021, City Council approved a 29-storey building with 282 rental dwelling units on this site as one of the six sites included in Phase Two of the Housing Now Initiative (now part of the Toronto Builds Framework). Once Council recommendations relating to infrastructure were resolved, site-specific Zoning By-law 1067-2024 was enacted. The revised proposal continues to deliver new affordable housing on a City-owned site and further advances the City’s priority of building adequate and affordable housing for all Torontonians.

The proposal is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement (2024) and conforms to the City’s Official Plan including the Downtown Plan and the Railway Lands West Secondary Plan.
