Congrats to our newest RPP Members! 🎉
We had a great few days at the OPPI Conference in September!
 
Bousfields sponsored the conference and our team members both hosted and attended sessions, shared perspectives and learned from the many thoughtful discussions that took place over the conference.
 
Thank you to everyone who attended our sessions and contributed to the dialogue. We’re heading into the rest of the year with plenty of new ideas and insights from a memorable few days in Blue Mountain.

Mike Dror, MCIP RPP, Partner, had the opportunity to join Kyla Tan from Fitzrovia, Caterina Cuda from Turner Fleischer, Dan Nicholson from the City of Toronto and Benjamin Hoff from Urban Strategies Inc. on a walking tour of Bloor Crossing as part of the Mpact conference last week.
 
The master-planned community at Bloor and Dufferin was originally designed by Bousfields for Metropia, Capital Developments, and Hazelview Investments. Over the last few years, Bousfields has remained actively involved in the project, continuing to work with current owners Hazelview and Fitzrovia.
 
Residents have now begun to move in, and MPACT conference attendees had the opportunity to see the ongoing work on the expansive public realm, including the new street network, mid-block connections and future public park.

Our Planning Interns, Evan and George wrapped up their terms with us last week. Evan and George are enthusiastic team members who brought endless energy and a desire to learn and grow to their roles over the summer. Shout out to their mentors Brynne and Joie for mentoring our interns and helping them navigate their roles and blooming careers. 
 
Best of luck to Evan and George as they continue their studies in the fall!

Swipe or read below for some key takeaways from each of them about their time at Bousfields:
 
Evan: “I’ve had an incredible and instructive summer at Bousfields. It was a revelation to me how much work goes on behind the scenes to bring each individual development to fruition. Seeing all the labour and coordination required, and getting to be a part of it, I feel that I’ve come to understand the role and value of planners much better. I will carry these experiences with me as I move forward, and I am especially grateful to my mentor, Brynne, whose attention and guidance were invaluable.”
 
George: “My time at Bousfields has been an absolute blast! I’m tremendously grateful for having worked with a wonderful team on such varied projects in both scale and complexity all across the province. 
 
Applying research to projects with real, material impacts has been deeply rewarding, while solving problems in highly collaborative ways with some of the smartest people I’ve had the pleasure of working with will be indispensable to my studies and budding planning career.
 
Thank you to everyone at Bousfields, please keep in touch!”

We’re proud to share that earlier this summer, Toronto City Council adopted the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments for 5 Fairview Mall Drive. 

Located within the rapidly evolving Don Mills Major Transit Station Area, the redevelopment of 5 Fairview Mall Drive required balancing residential intensification with the retention of an important medical office use. 

Our team helped shape the proposal into a comprehensive mixed-use redevelopment consisting of three towers ranging from 33 to 45 storeys, delivering 1,302 homes and approximately 9,000 m² of office and retail space. The plan also introduces new publicly accessible open space, enhanced pedestrian connections, landscaped amenity areas and a redesigned internal circulation system. 

The result is a community that accommodates growth, continues the provision of important healthcare services, and contributes to the ongoing evolution of this important urban node.

We are thrilled to share that in July, Toronto City Council adopted the Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendments for Ronald McDonald House (RMH) Toronto expansion at 240 McCaul Street, marking an important milestone for a project that will strengthen support for families accessing pediatric health care in Toronto.

Bousfields worked closely with RMH Toronto, the consultant team and City staff to advance a proposal for linked 19-storey and 4-storey buildings containing 200 suites. Located near Toronto’s Hospital District, the development has been carefully integrated into its urban setting and will significantly expand the organization’s ability to support families who need to remain close to specialized medical care.

The approval supports RMH Toronto’s long-term presence on the site and represents represents an important investment in Toronto’s health care ecosystem and the vital social infrastructure that supports children and families from across Ontario and beyond.

🚇 Line 5 Transit Crawl: Exploring the Eglinton Crosstown Corridor 

Bousfielders had a great time last week exploring the western portion of the Eglinton Crosstown (Line 5) corridor. The transit crawl took participants to several key stations along the corridor, highlighting local history, planning contexts, and Bousfields projects within a number of Protected Major Transit Station Areas (PMTSAs) along the Eglinton corridor. 

The tour began at Mount Dennis Station, where attendees learned about the area’s transformation, including the redevelopment of the former Kodak lands and the evolving planning framework for the surrounding neighbourhood. The group then visited Oakwood Station where we explored the cultural heritage and significance of Little Jamaica and ongoing planning initiatives in the area. The evening concluded at Eglinton Station, with discussions focused on intensification, the public realm, privately owned publicly accessible spaces (POPS) and future growth within one of Toronto’s busiest urban centres. 

Throughout the event, Bousfielders also took part in a Line 5-themed bingo activity, had our own ‘Kodak moment’ andsampled snacks from local businesses. It was a great opportunity to learn more about Toronto’s evolving transit network and the communities it serves, while exploring the connections between transit investment and our planning, urban design, and community engagement work. 🚆🌆

The @uli_toronto Summer Social brought together approximately 700 professionals from across the land development and real estate industry at TABLE Fare + Social in CIBC Square.
 
As an event sponsor, Bousfields was pleased to support an evening that created space for meaningful conversations across disciplines, organizations, and sectors. Events like these play an important role in strengthening relationships within our industry and providing opportunities to exchange ideas outside of day-to-day project work.
 
Thank you to ULI Toronto for organizing another well-attended event!

Last week was a busy one for the Bousfields team! We helped advance over 30 files between Toronto and East York, North York, Scarborough, and Etobicoke York Community Councils.

These files represent a wide range of projects, each with its own complexities, timelines, and stakeholders. We’re appreciative of all the collaborative work that happens across disciplines to get each project to this important milestone in the process.

Thank you as well to City staff for their continued engagement and thoughtful review throughout the process. Advancing planning applications is never the work of a single party, and productive outcomes depend on contributions from many people along the way.

Stay tuned for more info about some of these projects in the coming weeks!
