York Centre: what you can build here
Fourplex as-of-right
York Centre sits inside Toronto's citywide multiplex zoning, so a fourplex is allowed as of right on most detached lots here. A sixplex, in a detached building only, is allowed as of right in nine wards, and York Centre is not one of them. The browse button below opens current listings in York Centre.
Can you build a sixplex in York Centre?
Not as of right. Toronto allows a sixplex as of right in nine wards, in a detached building only, and York Centre is not one of them. A fourplex is allowed as of right here, as it is across Toronto.
Is a fourplex as-of-right in York Centre?
Yes. A fourplex is allowed as of right on most detached residential lots in York Centre, the same as it is across Toronto.

Counted by City file. 3 of these 5 rulings cover more than one lot: they are counted here and are not listed. A ruling is an approval or a refusal at a hearing. Deferred and withdrawn files are left out, because neither says what the Committee decided. Fewer than 10 rulings in twelve months, so no approval rate is shown.

3 rulings that cover more than one lot, such as a lot split or a building on each of two lots, are not listed here, because each ruling listed shows the size and the units of one lot.
Ward boundaries and the rules change, and none of this is a zoning opinion on a specific lot. Confirm what an address allows with a TESA Scan.
