Suncor seeks 39-storey rental tower at North York gas station

UrbanToronto reported that a Petro-Canada station at Bathurst Street and Sheppard Avenue West in North York could give way to a 39-storey rental tower for Suncor Energy Inc. The site is at a potential station on the Sheppard Line 4 Subway Extension, which Metrolinx is studying. But that station is far from certain. The extension has no funding and no projected date, and its Initial Business Case is still under review.

Colliers Development Services filed Official Plan and Zoning By-law Amendment applications with the City of Toronto for the developer. The Official Plan amendment would change the area’s planning policy, the Sheppard West / Dublin Secondary Plan, and the zoning amendment would grant permissions for this site alone.

The tower would rise 136.85 metres and hold 558 market-rate rental homes. The plan has 188 vehicle spaces, 152 of them for residents. For context, Statistics Canada said Toronto’s apartment starts fell 33% to 18,986 in 2025 from 28,162 in 2024.
