Toronto to allow larger apartment buildings around some transit stations

by Alex Bozikovic

Condo construction in Toronto's Yorkville neighbourhood in August, 2025. Within a 200-metre radius of transit stations, 30-storey towers are now permitted under certain circumstances.

The Ontario government, alongside Toronto City Hall, recently announced planning reforms in Canada’s largest city that would legalize larger apartment buildings around most transit stations.

Ontario Housing Minister Rob Flack and Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow jointly announced the changes on Aug. 15. They alter Toronto’s official plan in 120 mass transit station areas, or MTSA, around transit stations or stops.
