CreateTO
CreateTO is the City of Toronto’s real estate agency and a catalyst for city building. The agency brings together stakeholders, partners and community members to create opportunities to ensure the best use of the City’s real estate assets for today and tomorrow. Toronto has more than 8,000 properties within its real estate portfolio. And, CreateTO has a team of real estate and development experts that are continually looking for new and better ways to use those assets. For the first time in Toronto’s history, one agency has been given the mandate to take a strategic, whole of government, city-wide approach towards the delivery of real estate services. The onus is on CreateTO to be practical, fiscally responsible, and to deliver value to the City and the people who live here. CreateTO is committed to working with our partners to build a more livable city – and that means identifying opportunities to pursue initiatives like building more affordable housing, creating transit-oriented developments, establishing new parks, cleaning up brownfield sites, and restoring heritage properties. Working in partnership with our City partners and stakeholders, CreateTO has the potential to have a tremendous impact on creating more livable, inclusive communities across Toronto.
