TOcore is an initiative to prepare a new plan for Toronto’s Downtown. In addition, a series of five infrastructure-related strategies have been developed to implement the plan. These strategies cover community facilities, parks and public realm, mobility, energy and water. The Downtown Plan is a 25-year vision that sets the direction for the city centre as the cultural, civic, retail and economic heart of Toronto and as a great place to live. The Downtown Plan provides detailed direction on the appropriate scale and location of future growth. It links this growth with infrastructure provision to ensure the creation of complete communities.
