Waterfront Toronto was established by the Government of Canada, the Province of Ontario and the City of
Toronto in 2001 to oversee and lead the renewal of the city’s waterfront. Our mandate is to deliver a revitalized
waterfront that brings together the most innovative approaches to sustainable urban development, excellence in
urban design, real estate development, and leading technology infrastructure. Working with the community, and
with public and private-sector partners, Waterfront Toronto creates neighbourhoods anchored by parks and
public spaces, and diverse, sustainable, mixed-use communities that offer a high quality of life for residents,
employees, and visitors alike. We are transforming the waterfront for the use and enjoyment of the people of
Toronto, Ontario and Canada, to foster economic growth and to redefine how the city, province and country are
perceived by the world.
