Among the roughly 19,700 affordable rental units approved by the Toronto City Council since 2017, about 8 percent—or 1,617 of them—have been built, according to a new database.
The numbers were released on March 21 as part of a new project called the Housing Data Hub, which tracks Toronto’s home creation progress, the city hall said in a statement. The Hub tracks all affordable rental homes in the development pipeline with approval from city council, including projects that have received financial aid through city programs like Open Door or Housing Now.
