Enabling more options for housing that can be built in the city's neighbourhoods is one part of the Housing Action Plan to increase housing choice and access for current and future residents of Toronto. The Beaches-East York Pilot Project is one element of the Expanding Housing Options in Neighbourhoods (EHON) work program. The Pilot Project will review appropriate City-owned sites in Beaches-East York and work with the community and development industry to build "missing middle" demonstration projects that could be used as models for missing middle projects on other sites, both publicly and privately owned, within the City. The Beaches-East York Pilot Project will assess the feasibility of building missing middle, ranging from duplexes to low-rise walk-up apartments, on selected City-owned sites that are designated Neighbourhoods in the City's Official Plan.
