The bulletin illustrates how the city has grown over these five years and how it may continue to develop over time. In total, 397,000 residential units and 11 million square meters of non-residential gross floor area (GFA) were proposed by projects with development activity between January 1, 2014 and December 31, 2018. Of this, 140,000 residential units were approved but not yet built, and an additional 167,000 were still under review. Combined, if all these units were approved, built and occupied, they would accommodate approximately 543,000 residents and bring Toronto's total population to 3.50 million.
