About Thorncliffe Park

Thorncliffe Park is a renter-majority neighbourhood, where about 86% of households rent. With a median household income near $67,000, it's one of the more affordable parts of the city. The population skews younger, and a mix of housing keeps the streets active.

Rents sit below the GTA average of $1,917, keeping it accessible relative to much of Toronto. For investors and owners eyeing a high-demand, transit-rich pocket, the relevant questions are about multiplex potential and purpose-built rental — the build-and-hold strategies we evaluate with construction-informed due diligence.

We've been building in East York since 1988. In Thorncliffe Park, that means honest answers about what's feasible, what it costs, and what adds real value — before you commit.
