Unlocking Multiplex Housing in Toronto

Toronto's approach to multiplex housing has evolved quickly—from the initial legalization of fourplexes to allowing six units in some areas, along with key changes to development charges, zoning rules, and approvals. In this episode, we're joined by planner Sean Galbraith to break down what's changed, what's working, and how these policies are playing out on the ground. We discuss the practical impact of recent reforms, the types of projects being built today, and how builders and homeowners are starting to take advantage of new opportunities. This is a look at how the city is gradually unlocking more low-rise density—and what that means for the future of housing in Toronto.
