YZD

YZD is the once-in-a-generation transformation of the 370-acre former Downsview Airport lands, led by Toronto-based Northcrest Developments. YZD is reimagining what it means to live well in a city, now and in the future. Today, you can experience YZD through art installations, thrilling and unexpected events, and activities for all, as we create this city-within-a-city, over time. Over the next 30 years, this project will evolve into seven vibrant neighbourhoods, welcoming more than 55,000 residents and featuring more than 28 million sq. ft. of residential space, seven million sq. ft. of commercial and cultural spaces, and nearly 74 acres of parks and open spaces. Community engagement is at the heart of what we do and YZD is poised to become an international destination for innovation, culture, and sustainability, shaped with and for the people of Toronto.
