Toronto Entertainment District
Residents Association​​​

TEDRA's Statement Regarding New Condo Development:

​The residents of the Entertainment District have serious concerns regarding any new condo development in the Entertainment District.
We point to factors such as:

- Lack of infrastructure to service increased population (fire, hospital, police, TTC, hydro facilities).
- The elimination of popular cultural & tourist destinations, and local community-based businesses, including restaurants & retailers.
- Intense noise, lane closures, traffic congestion, dust, and other environmental factors due to several simultaneous condo construction projects.
- No clear plan for development of the area as a whole.
- The Bank of Canada's December 2012 warning of adverse effects on the housing market & overall economy due to condo overdevelopment.

Until these concerns are addressed, the residents of the Entertainment District may not support new condo developments until a full infrastructure assessment is taken and a comprehensive city development plan is proposed to the residences of the affected areas.
