Deer Park is a vibrant neighbourhood and the DPRG has an active Development Committee, which monitors the progress of projects and updates our membership on issues that matter to them.

135 St Clair Ave. W.

We continue to follow Fitzrovia’s plans for a 50-storey luxury rental building at Avenue Road and St. Clair. Scheduling of community meetings and updates on the Site Plan Application have met with delays.

Development in the DPRG area
August 14, 2026
There are currently almost 20 developments proposed for the Deer Park area, mostly highrises, and centred around Yonge and St. Clair. See the development chart for the status of each project.
135 St. Clair Ave. West update
July 30, 2026
We have something of an update relative to the pending project at Avenue and St Clair, which is a 50-storey purpose-built luxury rental being developed by Fitzrovia. The Fitzrovia team indicates that they are still working through design and technical details of the 50-storey purpose-built luxury rental project at Avenue Rd. & St. Clair. Scheduling is still largely unknown, but a consultation meeting is possible for August and demolition of the existing site is still scheduled for the fall.
Delisle Court redevelopment update
July 30, 2026
As many of you know, there is a plan to demolish Delisle Court to construct a community/cultural/theatre centre. There are a number of objections to the proposal, including: a building taller than the existing structure; an entrance atrium rising to the height of the eighth floor of the adjacent apartment building at 10 Delisle; a four-storey mechanical penthouse; a rooftop outdoor amenity space overlooking private balconies and terraces; and the absence of street-level retail along the entire Yonge Street frontage, creating an inactive streetscape reminiscent of the Eaton Centre.
Delisle Court Redevelopment
May 16, 2026
We have recently had our attention drawn to a planned redevelopment of Delisle Court. There has been no public notice visible to the neighbourhood as with many other developments in the area, so we confess surprise.
We then asked the Councillor’s office to organize a virtual meeting for us with a representative from Choice Properties REIT (George Weston Limited is the parent company), the entity which is developing the site to take us through the plans. This happened on Friday May 8, and from our perspective (and that of our neighbours at 10 Delisle), the news is not good.
1233 Yonge St.
May 16, 2026
Despite a long list of speakers and a blizzard of letters and submissions objecting, Councillor Dianne Saxe’s motion to refuse the application for this development was defeated.
Only Councillor Matlow supported Saxe’s refusal motion. Councillor Perks, who was thought to support the motion, voted against it while blaming the Province although the application was more than 3 times the density guided by the Province itself.
29 Pleasant Blvd.
May 16, 2026
The existing buildings on the site at 29 Pleasant Boulevard were demolished earlier this year to make way for the Notable, a 51-storey high rise by Graywood Developments.
In a virtual neighbourhood meeting in February, the developer explained their proposed construction schedule. There will be 6 construction phases, and the project is expected to take 41 months to complete.
