  • Toronto Multiplexes Are Tightening Street Parking | Watch Today’s Real Estate Updates & Tips

    Toronto residents near Dufferin-Dupont say more multiplexes have made street parking harder, sometimes forcing drivers to park blocks away, especially at night or with groceries.
    Recently, local council backed a motion to study limits on street parking passes for new multiplexes while still encouraging public transit use.
    Toronto currently sets no permit cap per address; applicants need ID, vehicle registration and occupancy proof, and 6-mo permits cost ~$165 per vehicle.
    City staff said 105 permit areas and 378 streets allow permit parking, and Toronto can issue permits up to ↑10% beyond spaces.
    Current pressure is visible: eight permit parking areas and 25 streets already have waitlists, as staff review options for new multiplex permits.
