A satellite George Brown campus could eventually be built in Toronto’s Mount Dennis neighbourhood as part of a new partnership between the city and the college.
Mayor John Tory announced on Wednesday morning that the city and the agency responsible for managing its real estate assets – CreateTO - will work collaboratively with George Brown to explore opportunities for a new campus in the neighbourhood, which will soon be served by the Eglinton Crosstown LRT.
CreateTO was asked last year to identify city-owned land in the Mount Dennis neighbourhood which could be utilized for a post-secondary campus. CreateTO has so far identified three sites which would be suitable for a campus, including the York Civic Centre on Eglinton Avenue West, a Green P parking lot at 1169 Weston Road and a parcel of land near Eglinton Avenue West and Photography Drive which is located near a future mixed-use development.
