Revitalization
Working with the City of Toronto, our tenants and community residents, and private development partners, we are transforming aging housing infrastructure to build better homes, better neighbourhoods, and a better Toronto for all.
Revitalization creates vibrant communities with increased opportunities for residents. It attracts investment in the form of new or improved amenities like schools, parks, and community facilities. It provides residents with various opportunities such as training, scholarships, jobs, and business development support. More than just physical redevelopment, revitalization focuses on building social infrastructure.
With each revitalization project, TCHC prioritizes ongoing community engagement to ensure the vision that the community has for their future development is realized. We leverage our developer partners and stakeholders to create employment opportunities, education, and training programs.
