Permit projects in Downtown & Midtown
Shaktisa reads the City of Toronto's public building-permit records, groups the rows into projects, and sends you a weekly digest of the new permitted projects in your trade and your territory.
205
new projects in this territory in the last 30 days (2026-09-24 to 2026-10-23, the most recent 30 days in the current data).
Which trades are covered?
Plumbing. Mechanical / HVAC. Residential renovation and additions. Demolition and drain. Electrical is not covered: in Ontario, electrical permits are issued by the Electrical Safety Authority, not the City, so electrical permits are not in this data.
The 5 most recent projects
Records shown as published in City of Toronto permit data. Contains information licensed under the Open Government Licence - Toronto.
What you get in each digest
- The project address and the permit work, shown as published in the record.
- The issue date, so you can see how fresh each project is.
- Applications in progress, in their own section, labelled with their status as published. Applied for is not issued, and the digest keeps them apart.
- A declared dollar estimate, only where the permit record itself carries one, labelled "declared estimate on the record". Many records carry no usable figure. When they do not, none is shown.
- A plain label where it applies: no contractor named on the permit record.
About that label
Some permit records name a contractor. Many do not. When a record names no contractor, the digest labels it exactly that way. The label describes the permit record only. It is not a promise about the job, and it does not mean a job is open, unclaimed, or waiting.
