Your site has potential. Let's talk about what to do with it.
The numbers above give you the picture. A conversation with Noam gives you the path — design, permits, feasibility, and next steps. 20 minutes, no obligation.
This report is provided for educational and informational purposes only. All information is based on publicly available City of Toronto zoning data and errors or omissions may occur — always verify independently. This report does not constitute professional architectural, planning, legal, or financial advice, and must not be relied upon for design, investment, or permitting decisions. A registered survey and pre-application consultation with Toronto Building are strongly recommended before any commitments are made. Lot dimensions shown are indicative only. NHDS / Noam Hazan Design Studio, Toronto.

The tool interprets the city-wide Zoning By-law 569-2013 across all residential zones — RD, R, RS, RT, and RM — and automatically applies the Major Streets overlay (By-law 1062-2025) where applicable, identifying whether an apartment building of up to 6 storeys is permitted as-of-right.

Fourplex permissions under By-law 474-2023, sixplex eligibility under By-law 654-2025, and garden suite rights under O. Reg. 462/24 are all flagged automatically.

*Not a substitute for a professional zoning review, but a clear and accurate first look at what a site can support.
