2674- 2704 Yonge Street

BACKGROUND

On September 16, 2020 a rezoning application for this property at the southwest corner of Yonge and Alexandra was submitted by Triage Developments. The land assembly consists of the former Trull Funeral Home site and the low-rise apartment building to the south (2674-2704 Yonge Street).
North York Community Council considered a preliminary report on November 4, 2020 which identifies issues to be addressed and resulted in the scheduling of a community consultation meeting. LPRO submitted a letter to the committee with our initial comments on the proposal.

A community consultation meeting was held in January 2021. City Planning and The Developer each gave a presentation followed by questions and comments from members of the public. Issues raised by community members included a lack of on-site parkland, height, setbacks, traffic and shadow impacts.

Revised plans for a 9-storey condominium building were submitted in December 2021. The new proposal involved a small expansion of Snider Parkette and a new pathway to connect Snider Parkette to Alexandra Blvd. 

North York Community Council and City Council gave final approval to the proposal in June and July 2022 respectively: demolition of the existing three-storey apartment building containing 31 rental dwelling units and ground-level retail along Yonge Street, and a Zoning By-law Amendment to permit a nine-storey mixed-use building with ground-level retail on Yonge. The proposed building had 91 dwelling units, 31 of which dwelling units were rental replacement. The developer also committed to paying for the restoration of the Alexandra Gates, in consultation with the Councillor for Ward 8, LPRO and neighbouring residents.

APRIL 2025 UPDATE:

In 2024  the original developer, AMDEV, entered into a partnership with another developer, Rockport. The adjacent property, 19 Alexandra, has been purchased to accommodate a much larger building than the 9-storey condominium originally proposed. Instead the developer wants to build a 13-storey AMICA luxury retirement residence.  The new development application is now available on the City of Toronto website: 2674-2704 YONGE ST & 19 ALEXANDRA BLVD

The proposal, which is 60% taller, 95% bigger (by gross floor area) and extends an additional 50 ft. into the residential area on Alexandra, includes:

  • a 13-storey seniors residence with residential suites, assisted living suites and memory care suites
  • a total 206 residential units consisting of studios, 1-bedroom, 1-bedroom + den and 2-bedroom units.
  • A paved pick up/drop off forecourt along the western property line will be provided, leading to 1 level of below-grade parking, providing a total of 24 parking spaces.

There will be an in-person Community Consultation Meeting on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, 5:30 – 8:00 p.m. at the Northern District Branch Library on Orchard View Blvd (Room 224). For details, go to: 2674-2704 Yonge 19 Alexandra Open House
