As the city filed it
The property at 10 Rosehill Avenue is on land administered by CreateTO. CreateTO is working with the Economic Development and Culture and Toronto Music Office to explore potential cultural and music-related uses that would support Toronto's creative sector on a temporary basis while due diligence continues to support the Toronto Builds housing site.

This motion asks Development Review to initiate a City-led zoning by-law amendment to enable appropriate cultural and creative uses on the site, with specific permissions to be determined through the zoning review process.
