Awaiting building permit approval for Habitat GTA's biggest home build in it's history- 50 townhouse units at 140 Pinery Trail. This build is right around the corner from our 6-unit McLevin build and from our earlier 36-unit "McLevin Woods" build that was completed almost a decade ago.

what we’re building
- Location: 140 Pinery Trail, Toronto, ON
- There are three, three-storey stacked townhouse buildings with a total of fifty ownership units.
- There will be 80 new trees and hundreds of additional shrubs and perennials planted throughout the site. A common outdoor amenity space will be located within the eastern portion of the site and each unit will have a modest private outdoor amenity area.
- To minimizing the noise and light from vehicle movements, we'll install an interior private driveway.
- 70 parking spaces will be provided. 42 spaces are located at grade at the north end of the property; 28 are in an underground garage beneath Phase 3.
