The transformation of Toronto’s Wallace Emerson neighbourhood reaches a new milestone as Almadev advances plans for ‘Block 3’ at 1245 Dupont Street. Moving beyond the former suburban-style Galleria Mall, this latest phase introduces a dual-tower project featuring a striking 50-storey purpose-built rental tower. Designed by Arcadis, the development is set to deliver 986 total rental units, including 32 affordable housing suites. With the new Wallace Emerson Community Centre, skating rink, and public park nearing completion for a 2027 opening, this project represents a significant shift toward high-density, mixed-use living in the area. The site will eventually include a 41-storey companion tower, further cementing this master-planned community as a cornerstone of modern urban intensification in the GTA. For a deep dive into the site plans, architectural renderings, and the complete future vision for the Galleria site, read the full report on UrbanToronto.
