Toronto Public Health’s (TPH) building on Victoria Street, which is home to the long-running The Works supervised injection and harm reduction program, has been sold to Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU).
Part of the City of Toronto’s plan to “unlock the potential” of its office assets, the deal also includes the sale of an adjacent three-storey office building at 38 Dundas St. E.
A dental clinic as well as The Works and a number of other services currently operating out of the 11-storey building at 277 Victoria St., just northeast of Yonge-Dundas Square, will also be moved within that time frame. Toronto Centre Coun. Chris Moise, chair of the Board of Health, said the plan to maintain services at that site until a “suitable new home is identified” is “reassuring.”
Funds from the sale of these two downtown properties will be used for “city-building priorities, like new affordable housing,” the City of Toronto said, “while also benefiting TMU and its long-term growth plans.”, which will see 55 of the City of Toronto’s office spaces consolidated into roughly 15 sites. This will be done by ending leases and selling eight of its “high-value” properties for “repurposing or redevelopment.
