Located at sought-after Yonge and Eglinton, the Plaza Midtown represents the best of both worlds – efficient and well connected with access anywhere in the city, yet completely self-contained, an enclave unto itself.

It’s a neighbourhood rapidly evolving into the future.

Two buildings on one site leveraging existing structures, the Plaza Midtown declares ownership of midtown Toronto, a reflection of Eglinton’s uniquely piecemeal history, evolving organically to suit the influx of area inhabitants.

This is the new midtown. This is Plaza Midtown.

WALKER’S PARADISEWALK SCORE:

98When completed in 2020, the 19km LRT will significantly cut travel time, while linking to 54 local bus routes, three subway interchanges and GO Transit.

It means getting to the Eaton Centre in just 20 minutes, Union Station in 24, and Pearson International Airport in as little as 45.

GET AROUND.

THE FUTURE LRT PLACES PLAZA MIDTOWN AT THE CENTRE OF EVERYTHING.

With a Walk Score of 98, Yonge and Eglinton’s impressive daily foot traffic tops an estimated 80,000 pedestrians daily - rivalled only by Toronto’s Yonge and Dundas Square. It’s already a walker’s paradise, but soon, with the imminent Crosstown LRT, the intersection will be even more accessible than ever before. By foot, by train, by car – you decide.
