Woodbridge Square Redevelopment: Vaughan’s New Urban Vision

Woodbridge Square Redevelopment: Vaughan’s New Urban Vision

The redevelopment of 7600 Weston Road marks a transformative moment for Vaughan's Woodbridge community. Known as Woodbridge Square, the project is set to replace an aging retail plaza with a vibrant, master-planned community. This new development will blend residential high-rises, green spaces, commercial amenities, and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure.

Recent plans submitted to the City of Vaughan include nine high-rise towers, with some reaching up to 55 storeys. The development will introduce over 2,000 residential units, significantly contributing to Vaughan’s housing supply while creating a modern urban district tailored to growing demand.

Located near Highway 407, Highway 400, and the Vaughan Metropolitan Centre (VMC), the site offers excellent access to regional transit and road networks. The proximity to the VMC subway station and Highway 7 Rapidway supports sustainable transportation and reduces car dependency for future residents.

In addition to vertical expansion, the project will prioritize public realm improvements, including landscaped open areas, POPS (Privately-Owned Public Spaces), and a reimagined streetscape. These features aim to make the area walkable, lively, and community-oriented.

While final approval is pending, the city is reviewing zoning amendments, community consultations, and infrastructure alignment. Once approved, construction of Phase 1 is expected to bring podium retail, public access features, and key residential components.

Real Estate & Planning Context

Vaughan continues to experience one of the strongest economic growth rates in the GTA, with its GDP outpacing that of Toronto. New condo projects are averaging $971 per square foot, and average condo prices hover around $655,000—highlighting investor confidence and a growing demand for transit-oriented, high-density communities.

To support housing affordability, the City of Vaughan recently reduced development charges by 47%. This policy move supports large-scale developments like Woodbridge Square and aims to attract both public and private sector investment.

Looking Ahead

Key milestones to watch include the city’s zoning and planning decisions, alignment with Highway 7 BRT upgrades, and the phased rollout of tower construction. With ample land, strategic transit proximity, and a forward-looking urban plan, Woodbridge Square is positioned to become a defining feature of Vaughan’s future skyline.
