Waterfront Toronto is a corporation created by the governments of Canada, Ontario and the City of Toronto with a mandate to deliver a revitalized waterfront.

As a public advocate and steward, our primary objective for waterfront revitalization is to leverage infrastructure projects to deliver key social and economic benefits. To do this, Waterfront Toronto brings together the most innovative approaches to sustainable development, excellence in urban design, real estate development, and advanced technology infrastructure.

Quayside is a 12 acre (4.9 hectares) parcel of land within a 20-minute walk of Toronto’s central business district. The Quayside development block begins at Bonnycastle Street in the west from Queens Quay East north to Lake Shore Boulevard; the eastern-most boundary is roughly the Victory Soya Mills Silos, spanning from Lake Shore Boulevard south to Lake Ontario and the Water’s Edge.

This land is considered a prime development site and is largely owned by Waterfront Toronto, with small portions owned by the City of Toronto and another small portion that is privately-held.

Building a next-generation community at Quayside remains a key deliverable in Waterfront Toronto’s Rolling 5-year Strategic Plan.

The lands at Quayside remain under Waterfront Toronto’s ownership. The project team is currently reflecting on all that we have learned through our work and engagement on the project to date as we reconsider plans for Quayside.
