Toronto: Permit Delays, Union Costs, LEED Required, Winter Impact
Toronto Building permits take 8-12 weeks (can hit 16+ with corrections—department backlogged). Quality contractors book 4-6 months out; Financial District specialists 6+ months. Costs: C$38-81/sqft. Union labor required downtown (30-40% premium vs open shop).
Toronto realities:
- Financial District: Union mandatory. PATH system access complex (underground logistics nightmare). Building management rules strict. LEED certification expected.
- Liberty Village/King West: Creative office conversions. Less union presence. Heritage designations can slow approvals (add 6-10 weeks).
- North York/Markham Suburbs: Faster permits (6-8 weeks), more open-shop, better availability. Corporate campus market.
LEED certification almost mandatory for Grade-A space—budget consultant fees (C$20-35K). Winter (Nov-Mar) impacts material delivery and exterior work. Union market means higher costs but better standardization. PATH construction during business hours restricted.
