4. City Council authorize the City Solicitor and City staff to take all necessary actions to implement City Council's decision.

This report recommends that City Council approve an application under Sections 33 and 34(1)1 of the Ontario Heritage Act (OHA) to alter the Part IV designated heritage properties at 1497 and 1501 Queen Street West, including the selective demolition of heritage attributes of 1501 Queen Street West. This is in connection with an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application for the expansion of the existing Parkdale Activity Recreation Centre (PARC) campus to provide additional affordable housing and community services in a new building constructed behind the partially retained façades of the heritage buildings. This report also seeks approval to enter into a Heritage Easement Agreement to ensure the long-term conservation of the heritage properties.

The subject redevelopment site is located on the south side of Queen Street West, at the southeast corner of Queen Street West and Beaty Avenue. It contains two heritage properties at 1497 Queen Street West (1497A and 1499 Queen Street West) and 1501 Queen Street West (93 Beaty Avenue) that are both designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the OHA.

The property at 1497 Queen Street West comprises a three-storey main street commercial block building. Constructed between 1924 and 1926 for James J. Walsh and designed by architect James M. Cowan, the building was initially built as a two-storey brick structure. A third-storey addition, designed by architects Chapman and Oxley, was completed in 1926 for the Lakeside Recreation Club Ltd., later known as Lakeside Bowl, which operated on the property until the late 1970s. In 1980, PARC opened a pilot mental health program in the building as a tenant. PARC acquired ownership of the property in 1991 and added ten units of supportive housing on the third floor in the late 1990s.

The property at 1501 Queen Street West comprises a three-storey apartment building constructed in c.1912 in the Edwardian Classical style as a mirror image of the building at 194 Dowling Avenue. Commissioned by Toronto developer David Lavine and designed by architect Stanley Arnold Palmer Waggett, the pair were historically known as the Parkdale Mansions and form a symmetrical composition at the east and west ends of the block. Since 2020, the apartment building at 1501 Queen Street West has been managed by PARC for affordable supportive housing purposes.

The proposed redevelopment involves the expansion of the existing PARC campus to increase the organization's capacity for affordable housing and community services. The proposal is to construct a new building behind the partially retained façades of the heritage buildings. The new building comprises two massing components with overall heights of seven and ten storeys. The new massing is stepped back approximately 5.3 metres and 2.6 metres along the north elevation, facing Queen Street West, and approximately 2.8 metres at the fourth storey along Beaty Avenue.

The north elevation of 1497 Queen Street West, facing Queen Street West, together with its eastern and western return walls, will be retained in situ. Due to significant structural deficiencies at 1501 Queen Street West, most of the north elevation is proposed to be dismantled and reconstructed using salvaged materials, to the extent possible, with new materials where required. However, the western-most portion of the north elevation and the Beaty Avenue elevation (with part of its the southwest return wall) will be retained in situ, as it does not exhibit the same structural deficiencies identified elsewhere along the façade.

Heritage Planning staff are satisfied that the proposed redevelopment conserves the on-site and adjacent heritage properties and is consistent with the applicable policy framework. The heritage impacts of the proposal are appropriately mitigated through the overall conservation strategy and design measures.

At its meeting on July 6, 2026 the Toronto Preservation Board considered Item PB46.13 and made recommendations to City Council.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends that City Council adopt the West Chinatown Planning Framework and associated Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendments to guide growth, development and community investment in the West Chinatown area. 

The West Chinatown Planning Framework is an outcome of the Chinatown Tomorrow Planning Initiative, an interdivisional project that began in 2019. The initiative was informed by extensive public consultation and input of staff across City divisions as well as key stakeholder organizations. The West Chinatown Planning Framework provides direction on enhancing the public realm, supporting small businesses, improving and expanding housing and livability, preserving cultural heritage, and guiding built form. Its objectives will be implemented through future capital investment and development within the area.

The report also recommends amendments to the Official Plan and Zoning By-law. The Official Plan Amendment would redesignate the Spadina-Dundas intersection in the Downtown Plan from Mixed-Use Areas 3 - Main Street to Mixed Use Areas 2 - Intermediate and removes Site and Area Specific Policies that are no longer applicable to the area. The Mixed-Use Areas 2 designation more accurately reflects the higher densities anticipated at this key intersection, and through future development, supports the provision of community benefits, affordable housing and public realm improvements.

The Zoning By-law Amendment permits a range of small-scale retail, service and office uses on interior lots within residentially zoned properties along Baldwin Street. These changes would encourage small-scale retailers and entrepreneurs to locate within the neighbourhood while supporting the area's character.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend the Official Plan for the lands at 181 to 195 Dundas Street West and 63 Centre Avenue substantially in accordance with the draft Official Plan Amendment included as Attachment 6 to the report (June 18, 2026) from the Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of a Rental Housing Demolition application which proposes to demolish 210 rental dwelling units located at 420-444 Yonge Street and 1-23 College Street. The new development on the site is proposed to include 216 replacement rental units located in the first phase of development within a 65-storey building. The proposal includes a Tenant Assistance Plan that addresses the right of existing tenants to return to replacement rental units at similar rents and provides financial compensation to mitigate hardship.

The proposed development on the site at 420-444 Yonge Street and 1-23 College Street is the subject of a related Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application (25 191175 STE 11 OZ). The proposed development would permit 65-, 75- and 96-storey buildings with 2,342 dwelling units, including 216 replacement rental units. The proposal also includes 43,000 square metres of commercial space, 19,373 square metres of hotel space, 5,527 square metres of cultural space, and 600 square metres of new on-site parkland to expand the existing adjacent College Park. An approval report for the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application has been advanced concurrently with this Rental Housing Demolition application approval report.

This report also recommends approval of the Residential Demolition Permit under Chapter 363 of the Toronto Municipal Code, subject to conditions.

The Toronto and East York Community Council forwards the Item to City Council without recommendation.

This report recommends that City Council approve an application under Section 33 of the Ontario Heritage Act (OHA) to alter a designated heritage property at 420-444 Yonge Street and 1-23 College Street known as "College Park" (Ross and Macdonald Building). This report is in connection with the submitted Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment application(s) for three mixed use towers of 65, 75 and 96 storeys, proposed above the existing designated College Park building, which will form the base of the towers. The owner also requests that Council grant authority to amend the existing Heritage Easement Agreement.

The subject property contains a 7-storey building at the southwest corner of College Street and Yonge Street, with a three-storey wing extending south along Yonge Street. It was designated under Part IV of the OHA on November 26, 1975, under City of Toronto By-law 510-75. A Heritage Easement Agreement was registered on the property on November 10, 2011. The property contains the T. Eaton Co. Limited, Eaton’s College Street Store building that was designed by Ross & Macdonald; Sproatt & Rolph, Associates and constructed in 1928-1930. It is designated as being of architectural value as a notable example of Classical Revival style with Art Moderne detailing.

The proposed conservation strategy includes retention of the majority of the seven-storey corner College Park building; full in-situ retention of street-facing elevations (east and north); and partial in-situ retention of the south and west (rear) elevations. The project would restore the interior arcade, the seventh-floor foyer, round room, clipper rooms, and auditorium. Extending along the Yonge Street frontage, there would be a new podium infill above the existing three storey podium. The proposed addition would align with the datums of the existing building and interpret the original designs by Ross & Macdonald.

Heritage Planning staff are satisfied that the proposed alterations conserve the onsite and adjacent heritage properties and are consistent with the existing policy framework. The heritage impacts of the development proposal are appropriately mitigated through the overall conservation strategy.

At its meeting on June 8, 2026 the Toronto Preservation Board considered Item PB45.5 and made recommendations to City Council.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of the application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a 60.0-metre (15 storeys, excluding mechanical penthouse) mixed-use building at 2010-2050 Yonge Street and 15 Lola Road. The building is proposed to contain 274 dwelling units and 1,453 square metres of ground floor commercial space. The development proposes to include a City-owned public laneway (Ln W Yonge S Lola Rd) that currently provides access to the subject site, as well as to 20 Glebe Road West which is under separate ownership. An off-site parkland dedication is proposed at 24 Manor Road East. 

For the development to proceed as proposed, the City-owned public laneway will need to be permanently closed through a separate process led by the City's Transportation Services Division and the laneway lands acquired by the proponent though a subsequent sale and disposition process managed by the City's Corporate Real Estate Management (CREM) division. The applicant will be required to address any and all matters pertaining to the adjacent land's use of the existing public laneway though these subsequent applications. 

A Holding provision is recommended for the site which would not be lifted unless City Council passes a by-law to close the public laneway (Ln W Yonge S Lola Rd); the laneway is acquired by the proponent; and all associated requirements have been satisfied.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of the application to amend the Site Specific Zoning By-law 1246-2022 to permit an increase in height from 54 storeys (175 metres) to 61 storeys (201.5 metres including mechanical penthouse), and reduce the setback from the south property line to the tower from 10 to 6.5 metres.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend Site Specific By-law 1096-2021 for the lands municipally known as 27 Grosvenor and 26 Grenville Street substantially in accordance with the draft Zoning By-law Amendment included as Attachment 4 to the report (June 17, 2026) from the Acting Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

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.

3. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to amend the Section 37 Agreement dated December 10, 2021 in connection with the development located at 27 Grosvenor and 26 Grenville Street to:

a. reduce the required interior gross floor area for the non-profit childcare centre to 640 square metres; and

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

On May 5 and 6, 2021, City Council approved a Zoning By-law Amendment application to permit a mixed-use development with two towers, 32 and 46 storeys in height, connected by a shared base building at 27 Grosvenor Street and 26 Grenville Street. As part of the approval, Council directed staff to enter into an agreement under Section 37 of the Planning Act to secure a non-profit childcare centre with a total interior gross floor area of 685 square metres and an exterior gross floor area of 290 square metres located on the first and second floors of the building with a total of six parking spaces required on site. 

The proposal has been modified through detailed design since the original approval to locate the childcare centre entirely on the first floor. The new configuration removes requirements for staircases and elevators, creating a more efficient floorplate and allowing for the interior area of the childcare centre to be reduced by 45 metres while increasing capacity from 49 to 62 children.

The revised design also contemplates three pick-up and drop-off spaces for the childcare centre being located in a layby within the public Right-of-Way immediately adjacent to the childcare centre entrance instead of within the underground parking, garage allowing for the required on-site vehicle parking spaces to be reduced. 

This report recommends amending the Section 37 terms in Schedule A of site-specific By-law 1096-2021 and the Section 37 Agreement registered on title at 27 Grosvenor Street and 26 Grenville Street to reduce the required interior gross floor area of the childcare centre from 685 square metres to 640 square metres and to reduce the required number of on-site parking spaces reserved for the use of the childcare centre from 6 to 3.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

This report recommends approval of an application to amend the Zoning By-law to permit a 69-storey (220.5 metres, plus 8-metre mechanical penthouse) residential building containing 818 dwelling units at 90-94 Isabella Street, with permissions for small-scale non-residential uses in 94 Isabella Street.

On December 13, 2023, City Council approved a previous application to amend the Zoning By-law for the properties at 90-94 Isabella Street to permit a 69-storey residential building. This application reconfigures the previous approval by reducing the size of the tower floor plate, and reorienting the tower from an east-west direction to a north-south direction. The reorientation of the tower form and redistribution of the massing allows for the removal of the previously approved tower massing over 94 Isabella Street and facilitates the full retention of that heritage building. At the same December 13, 2023 City Council meeting, Council approved alterations to the heritage designated properties at 90-94 Isabella Street and authorized the entry into a Heritage Easement Agreement.

The site contains two properties designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act: 90-92 Isabella Street and 94 Isabella Street. The proposal includes the in situ retention of the front (south) projecting façade of 90-92 Isabella Street, while portions of the east and west return walls are proposed to be dismantled and reconstructed. This reworked proposal facilitates the retention of the heritage building at 94 Isabella Street in its entirety.

This report recommends approval of a revised Rental Housing Demolition application which proposes to demolish 65 rental dwelling units located at 64-66 Wellesley Street East and 552-570 Church Street.

This report replaces the original recommendations approved by City Council with new recommendations securing updates to the replacement floor plans based on the new development proposal, and an updated Tenant Assistance Plan that is consistent with the City's current practices, while maintaining other required aspects of the previously approved approach to replacing rental housing. These new recommendations are reflected in changes to Parts 4a., 4c. and 4j., 5b., and 5d. below, whereas the remaining recommendations remain unchanged from the July 19 and 20, 2023 Council decision. The new recommendations also include the property at 562 Church Street which was part of the original applications but the address was omitted from the previous report's title and recommendations.

An approval report for the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment application has been advanced concurrently with this revised Rental Housing Demolition application approval report.

The application for Site Plan Control is subject to a Heritage Permit application under the Ontario Heritage Act because a previously approved application related to an approved Zoning By-law Amendment has been revised.

The subject property at 64 Wellesley Street East contains the Wellesley Apartments, a five-storey, multi-unit residential apartment building constructed in 1931.

Heritage Planning staff are satisfied that the proposed alterations continue to conserve the onsite and adjacent heritage properties and are consistent with the existing policy framework. The heritage impacts of the development proposal are appropriately mitigated through the overall conservation strategy.

At its meeting on June 8, 2026 the Toronto Preservation Board considered Item PB45.6 and made recommendations to City Council.

The Toronto and East York Community Council recommends that:

1. City Council amend the Official Plan for the lands at 237, 249 and 251-253 Victoria Street substantially in accordance with the draft Official Plan Amendment included as Attachment 5 to the report (June 19, 2026) from the Acting Director, Community Planning, Toronto and East York District.

2. City Council authorize the City Solicitor to make such stylistic and technical changes to the draft Official Plan Amendment as may be required.

The Toronto and East York Community Council held a statutory public meeting on July 8, 2026 and notice was given in accordance with the Planning Act.

On September 1, 2022, an application to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law (File Number 22 198781 STE 11 OZ) was submitted to permit a 24-storey mixed-use building with 416 square metres of non-residential gross floor area and 256 dwelling units for the property at 237 Victoria Street. This Official Plan Amendment applied only to 237 Victoria Street. On June 19, 2023, the owner appealed the application to the Ontario Land Tribunal (OLT) due to Council not making a decision within the time frame in the Planning Act.

On March 11, 2026, a new Official Plan Amendment application (File Number 26 127817 STE 13 OZ), which is the subject of this report, was submitted to secure a block plan through a Site and Area Specific Policy for 237 Victoria Street, as well as the properties to the north at 249 and 251-253 Victoria Street. The policy would permit a tower to be located along the north property line of the property at 237 Victoria Street, with a maximum 30-metre height limit for the portions of the properties at 249 and 251-253 Victoria Street within 10 metres of the north property line of 237 Victoria Street. Additionally, the Official Plan Amendment would secure minimum setbacks of 10 metres to a tower from both the south property line of 237 Victoria Street and the midpoint of the laneway along the east side of 237 Victoria Street.

This report recommends approval of this application (File Number 26 127817 STE 13 OZ), to amend the Official Plan which applies to the properties 237-253 Victoria Street. 

A separate Request for Direction Report from the City Solicitor related to the appeal before the Ontario Land Tribunal for the application submitted in September 2022 for only 237 Victoria Street (File Number 22 198781 STE 11 OZ) is anticipated to be considered by City Council at the same meeting with this report.
