2674-2704 Yonge & 19 Alexandra: March 2026 update

 
 

The Site Plan Control Application proposes the development of a 13-storey building with a retirement residence component of 208 units and a separate rental replacement component consisting of 31 units.

 

The retirement residence contains 76 independent living, 52 assisted living and 80 memory care units for a total of 208 units. Plans call for a mix of studio, 1-bed, 1-bed + den, and 2-bed units occupying up to level 10 of the building with an amenities level for these residents on level 13. The 31 rental replacement units are on levels 11 and 12 and are a mix of 1-bed and 2-bed units. 

 

Residents from the Alexandra Blvd neighbourhood met with representatives for the development in December 2025. Items discussed at the meeting included:

  • A new TTC pad is planned for the South side of Alexandra Blvd. adjacent to the building. This is a requirement of the City of Toronto for Wheel Trans vehicles..
  • the POPS (Privately-Owned Publicly Accessible Space) which is open to the public and is mainly at the west side of the building, continuing behind the building (i.e. south of it) where it opens in areas to the Snider Parkette
  • the need for sufficient light in the POPS for security purposes without being intrusive
  • the adverse effect on parking both during construction and after completion
  • demolition of the rental building is planned for September/October 2026. Construction is scheduled to start by the end of 2026 and is expected to last 36‑40 months.

 

 

Further meetings with representatives of the development are planned for the residents to be kept informed about any updates in the design of the building, landscaping, and the construction management plan with the goal that the residents have the opportunity to provide input to the extent possible.
