A major residential development is reshaping the Sheppard-Yonge corridor in North York. CentreCourthas proposed a 50-storey condominium tower at 4656 Yonge Street, designed by Arcadis, that would deliver 569 units to the transit-rich neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
The proposal stands out for its density and strategic location. Situated just 230 metres south of Sheppard-Yonge station, the development offers residents access to both the Yonge Line 1 and Sheppard Line 4, with planned future extensions promising enhanced connectivity to Richmond Hill and Scarborough.<\/p>\n
The project would rise 169.1 metres above a seven-storey podium with a five-storey street-facing base. The unit mix includes 50 studios, 366 one-bedrooms, 94 two-bedrooms, and 59 three-bedrooms\u2014reflecting strong demand for smaller units in transit-connected areas.<\/p>\n
With a Floor Space Index of 21.17 times site coverage, the development represents significant intensification on the 1,890m\u00b2 property. The proposal includes 300m\u00b2 of ground-floor retail and comprehensive cycling infrastructure with 385 bike parking spaces, emphasizing car-free living options.<\/p>\n
This project joins a wave of high-rise developments clustering around Sheppard-Yonge station, including the under-construction 4800 Yonge Street (49 storeys) and nearby proposals ranging from 26 to 59 storeys.
