A Visionary Approach to Parkside Living
With roots planted firmly adjacent to Downsview Park, our Downsview Lands development is a 270 acres (109 hectares) emerging community that offers a visionary approach to parkside living. Our development provides a unique living experience that is anchored by Downsview Park and proximity to transit and highway infrastructure. Downsview Lands is where urban living blends into scenic nature, and the excitement of the city is just a short ride away.
Our Neighbourhoods
The five distinct neighbourhoods that make up Downsview Lands each contribute to a visionary approach to parkside living. Together, they will introduce new homes, jobs, parks and community spaces while surrounding Downsview Park, which will remain a protected green space at the heart of the community.
Arbo
Located at Keele Street and Sheppard Avenue West, Arbo brings together the convenience of city living with the calm of parkside living. Connected by a pedestrian bridge to Downsview Park and steps from TTC and GO Transit, the neighbourhood will feature new homes, a mature woodlot and a new ecological park.
