Concord Park Place, Mixed-use skyscraper complex in North York, Ontario.
Concord Park Place is a large mixed-use residential development in North York, Ontario, made up of multiple high-rise towers along Sheppard Avenue. Alongside housing, the site also contains retail spaces, schools, and a library.
The land was used as an industrial distribution center from the 1960s before Concord Adex acquired it in 1999 and began converting it into a residential community. The transformation from industrial site to housing development took place over several years and is still ongoing.
The park is named after a significant Wendat location, helping residents connect with the Indigenous history of the land. Green spaces throughout the complex serve as reminders of this heritage.
The site has pedestrian paths and is close to transit stops, making it easy to get around on foot. Schools, shops, and green spaces are spread across the area so most day-to-day needs are within walking distance.
The site sits on land tied to the Wendat people, and this connection is acknowledged in the planning of the development. The name of the complex itself refers to this Indigenous relationship with the place.
