All member buildings are reminded that delegates should attend our virtual Member's General Meeting on Monday March 21st at 7 pm.
The 2021 census results were released last week by Statistics Canada. Some interesting information when the numbers are compared to the last census conducted in 2016. Due to the splitting of the Bay Street Corridor census area into basically half, the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood is now separated from the Bay Street Corridor area south of College.
The City of Toronto’s population grew 2.3%, to 2,794,356 residents. In that same period the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood, plus the block north of Charles (Yonge/Bloor/Queen’s Park/College) grew substantially by 19.8% to 17,591. The number of private dwellings increased 6.3% to 1,253,238 for the City and by 4.7% for Bay Cloverhill to 12,891. Population density per square kilometre slightly decreased for Toronto to 4,427.8, and Bay Cloverhill grew by a whopping 115.8% to 25,416.8. As you can see, there has been massive population growth in the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood over the past 5 years. This trend will continue with the many planned projects or condominium buildings under development. The challenges of balancing the need for housing and the ability for a municipality to define the character of a city have been raised by the Report of the Ontario Housing Affordability Task Force that was just released. This puts the Yonge Street Heritage Conservation District (which is currently before the Ontario Land Tribunal) in jeopardy. It would transfer zoning, density and urban design standard control from the City of Toronto to the Province of Ontario. Concerns about sustainable development and public input on development projects are heightened.
Our first general member's meeting of the year is this Monday January 17th at 7 pm. Virtual meeting details have been sent to all member building representatives. We look forward to seeing everyone!

Construction work continues on the MacDonald Block provincial government buildings at Bay/Wellesley/Queen's Park/Grosvenor. Infrastructure Ontario is planning a crane lift in mid-October, but there should be no road closures required. Construction is transitioning from the Ferguson and Mowat towers to the Hearst and Hepburn towers. This includes the dismantling and the addition of tarped scaffolding to revitalize the complex’s limestone exterior, in addition to the installation of new energy efficient windows and podium green roof, further to interior finishes.
Starting October 2021, Toronto Hydro will be upgrading overhead electrical cables and installing hydro poles in the Bay Cloverhill neighbourhood, in the area bounded by Bay Street to Grosvenor Street to Queen's Park's Crescent West to Charles Street. Work is scheduled to be completed in December 2022.
