Development activity refers to progress at any stage of the approvals and development processes, including application submission, development review, development approval, building permit application, building permit issuance, construction, occupancy and completion.

The bulletin illustrates how the city has grown over these five years and how it may continue to develop over time. In total, 435,069 residential units and 12,085,148 million square meters of non-residential gross floor area (GFA) were proposed by projects with development activity between January 1, 2015 and December 31, 2019. Of this, 148,797 residential units were approved but not yet built, and an additional 193,631 units were in projects still under review. There are 342,428 residential units and 9,791,833 m2 of non-residential gross floor area that are either under review or active, indicating a continuation of strong development activity in Toronto in the coming years. If all of these units were realized over time, they would increase the total number of dwellings in the city by a third.
