Multiplex Living Is the Future: Inside Toronto’s Leading Fourplex Developer

For generations, Canadians have aspired to the classic dream: a detached home with a yard, extra bedrooms, and perhaps a guest ensuite. However, this vision no longer aligns with today’s realities.

Toronto is grappling with two significant challenges: a housing shortage and escalating affordability issues. Skyrocketing prices, inflation, labor shortages, and limited housing supply have rendered traditional homeownership increasingly unattainable for many.​

At Modcity, we’re reimagining what housing can be.

Drawing inspiration from European cities and Montreal, we specialize in purpose-designed fourplexes situated in walkable, established neighborhoods across Toronto. Our urban homes offer between 950 and 1,400 square feet of thoughtfully planned space, featuring 3–4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and ground-related living—ideal for families, downsizers, and everyone in between. These “missing middle” homes efficiently utilize existing city infrastructure—parks, schools, transit—while bolstering local businesses and fostering community.​

As the leading Fourplex Developer in Toronto, Modcity is committed to delivering high-quality, purpose-built rental housing that enhances the city’s urban landscape. With over 80 dwelling units currently in production, we’re at the forefront of Fourplex Construction in the region.​

The city’s recent zoning amendments have paved the way for Multiplex housing, allowing for more diverse and affordable living options. By embracing these changes, we can create vibrant, inclusive communities that reflect the evolving needs of Toronto’s residents.​

Modcity offers a practical, scalable, and beautiful path forward in addressing Toronto’s housing challenges.
