UTPro data reveals an increase in construction and pre-construction activity in the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area compared to last month.
The UTPro Public Dashboard is designed to provide a snapshot of what’s happening in the Greater Golden Horseshoe at any given time. Each month, we highlight the biggest signals in the pipeline: the scale of planned development, what’s actively being built, and how much residential vs. non-residential space is underway.
