Since UrbanToronto’s last update in May, 2026, construction has continued to advance on the three towers of Phase 2 at The Residences at Central Park in North York’s Bayview Village area. Designed by Core Architects for Amexon Development Corporation, a 19-storey and two 31-storey residential towers are being built to the south of the completed Phase 1 building. The 12-acre masterplanned community sits just north of Leslie station on Sheppard Line 4, with the Oriole GO station waiting for funding to be moved within steps of the site too.
At the start of this month, Phase 2 continued its rise just above-grade, mostly hidden behind hoarding. Only one more floor has been added in a month, but this is where the floor-plates are the largest, at the top of the parking garage and the main floor of the podium that ties all the towers of Phase 2 together. Around the central crane, shoring and scaffolding support decking for the main floor slab, while newly poured concrete columns topped with projecting rebar define where the next forms will be set up.
Looking east from a passing GO train, Phase 2's three cranes can be seen behind a protective wall built beside the rail corridor, where work on the podium's main level is reflected in new concrete columns and shear walls. Beyond, the mature tree canopy of the East Don River ravine provides the natural setting that has shaped the masterplan, with the future Central Park Common and planned pedestrian connections (including a direct stairway to the ravine trail system) set to further merge the community with its surrounding parkland.
Seen at night, the completed 31-storey Phase 1 tower is now illuminated as occupancy progesses, its lit suites bringing the building to life above the East Don River ravine. Continuous projecting balcony bands wrap each floor-plate. Below, the six-storey podium features a grid of white precast panels framing recessed balconies. At grade, the brightly illuminated double-height lobby animates the frontage through full-height glazing, with newly landscaped sidewalks, street lighting, and planting beds beginning to establish the public realm that will eventually connect with the broader Central Park Common.
The wider masterplanned community will continue to take shape as future phases are completed, centred around the three-acre Central Park Common. Planned as the project’s social and pedestrian heart, the landscaped open space will feature a central lawn, timber seating platforms, shaded café-style gathering areas, a curved trellis pavilion, and pedestrian promenades linking the five buildings. Approximately 35,000 ft² of retail space will activate the shared podium frontages, complemented by additional indoor and outdoor amenity spaces.
At full build-out, The Residences at Central Park will deliver 1,478 residential suites across five buildings ranging in height from 46.5m to 105.9m.
