As of July 1, 2026, the GTHA skyline tells a story of cautious equilibrium. According to the latest UTPro Crane Report, there are 243 cranes currently active across the region—a marginal increase of one from the previous quarter, yet a 3% decline compared to this time last year. While the total number of cranes remains steady, the data reveals a shifting landscape: while Toronto and Halton have seen a decrease in the number of active projects, regions like Peel, York, and Durham are showing resilience with steady or rising activity. Currently, 171 projects are fueling the construction of 81,941 new dwelling units, with an average project height of 41.9 metres. As new construction starts tick upward for the third consecutive month, industry watchers expect this crane count to hold steady in the coming months.
