309-349 George Street Community Consultation

The City is proposing an amendment to the Official Plan and the Zoning By-law to permit an 10-storey institutional building, containing 80 emergency shelter beds, 100 transitional shelter beds, 124 long-term care beds, 70 supportive housing units, and a 2,269 square metre community hub. The proposal would replace the existing Seaton House men’s shelter.

The new facility is intended to serve the entire community by:
· Integrating green technology and accessibility standards into the project design
· Following best practices in social services and housing support, the essential services are being included in the project to ensure a continuum of care

The City of Toronto is committed to providing green infrastructure, inclusive social services, and accessibility, ensuring the facility meets the evolving needs of the community.

This project has a long history. For more information, please see: Advancing the George Street Revitalization Project - Update and Next Steps
