Toronto Community Housing unveiled a plan on Thursday for the rebuild of a public housing complex after its ceiling collapsed over five years ago, but it will still be years before the development is built, according to one city councillor.

The Swansea Mews development plan includes three towers, public greenspace and more than 100 parking spaces. Between the three buildings, about 650 residences will be included, some of which will be affordable housing.

In May 2022, tenants of the Swansea Mews were forced to leave their homes after a ceiling collapsed and injured a woman. The building, located near The Queensway and Windermere Avenue, has been vacant since engineers deemed all the buildings unsafe for people to live there. More than 400 residents were displaced .
