Northcrest’s approach begins with a simple belief: development should strengthen daily life and support the natural environment that surrounds it. Working closely with community members, Indigenous Peoples, industry partners and non-profit organizations helps guide this work. Their insight keeps the project rooted in the needs and values of the people who will call these neighbourhoods home.

YZD is a rare city-building opportunity that will change the way cities are built. Delivering 30,000 new homes and creating more than 20,000 jobs, YZD will provide parks and schools, shops, entertainment venues and eateries, and walkable streets. The shared backyard for seven future neighbourhoods, the pedestrian-focused reimagined Runway will set a new standard for public space in Toronto.

These 370 acres, in the geographical centre of the greater Toronto region and the largest urban redevelopment in North America, will redefine what it means to live in a city that prioritizes quality of life.
