Flooring in North York
Largely postwar: single-family homes, semi-detached houses, row housing and low and high-rise apartment buildings, with a condo spine from the 1990s on along Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue East. In 2021, 48.9% of dwellings in the North York Community Council area were in buildings of five or more storeys and 56.6% were built in 1980 or earlier.
What changes the job in North York
- Two different jobs in one district: concrete-slab condo suites along Yonge Street and Sheppard Avenue, and postwar houses on wood-joist floors on the side streets.
- Rented condo units in the North York Community Council area grew 26.9% from 2016 to 2021, so investor owners refreshing units between tenants are a real buyer segment.
- 56.6% of dwellings in the North York Community Council area were built in 1980 or earlier: older towers and houses need slab or subfloor checks before a click floor goes down.
