1631 Queen Street East is located north of Woodbine Park and along the 501-streetcar line in the Beaches-East York neighborhood. The development will include a new mixed-income, mixed-use development providing 280 new homes, with 133 of those being affordable rental units. The project will also provide an enhanced facility for the Coxwell Early Learning & Child Care Centre, an Indigenous placekeeping opportunity at Kishigo Lane, and potential community or retail space along Queen Street East.

CreateTO, the City of Toronto and our Indigenous design team held several community engagement meetings and Indigenous community sharing meetings on the project in 2020 and 2021.

1631 Queen Street East is a project part of the Housing Now Initiative to invest in City-owned lands across Toronto for the development of affordable housing within mixed-income, mixed-use, transit-oriented communities.
