Toronto Life
These are the buzziest purpose-built rentals coming to the city
A recent Toronto Life feature spotlights four standout developments set to redefine renting in the city, including Rushden, poised to be one of Canada's largest PBR projects at 1,304 units across three towers near Main Station, and Hazelview Investments' Bloor Crossing redevelopment at Dufferin and Bloor, which will deliver 1,140 units across a 12-, 34-, and 38-storey complex by spring 2026 Toronto Life. With roughly 80% of Ontario's existing purpose-built rental stock dating back to before 1980, these new builds mark a significant step toward modern, amenity-rich housing designed specifically for long-term renters.
