Minto Communities has officially kicked off a new chapter in Markham, with the groundbreaking of Park & Main, a thoughtfully designed community set to redefine townhome living. Just a stone's throw from the historic Main Street Unionville, Park & Main is poised to enhance the vibrant community atmosphere that Markham is known for while bringing much-needed housing options for growing families. The groundbreaking event gathered Minto executives to celebrate this pivotal moment, emphasizing the company's unwavering commitment to bringing well-designed housing product to market. 

"Reaching this construction milestone at Park & Main is a testament to our commitment to thoughtful growth,” says Vince Santino, Vice President of Development, Minto Communities GTA. “This project represents our dedication to delivering well-designed housing options that cater to the diverse needs of intergenerational families while celebrating the unique charm and spirit of the Unionville community.”

Park & Main will span over seven acres, introducing 119 townhomes—81 traditional and 38 back-to-back units—catering to the growing demand for quality housing for intergenerational and growing families of all sizes. The project will feature a diverse array of townhome styles, including stunning West Coast and Tudor designs. The traditional units will range from 1,923 to 2,524 square feet, with flexible floor plans that accommodate up to six bedrooms, while the back-to-back homes will offer three-bedroom options and range from 1,436 to 1,768 square feet. 

Residents will also enjoy an abundance of lush green space, including a 1.5-acre municipally-owned park perfect for leisure and recreation. With a short ten-minute walk to Bruce's Creek and the Rouge River Valley, Park & Main provides exceptional access to nature, walking trails, and outdoor adventures.

The charm of Main Street Unionville, characterized by its Victorian and Gothic-style homes and traditional lampposts, adds to the allure of Park & Main, making it an ideal choice for future homeowners. With close proximity to two GO train stations and premier shopping destinations, this development beautifully blends urban convenience with the warmth of a close-knit community.

Minto began site preparations for Park & Main earlier this year and officially launched the project in March 2024, with construction starting November 2024. Since then, all Back-to-Back Townhomes have sold out, while some Traditional Towns remain.
