Parallax Development Corporation

Parallax Development Corporation

Parallax Development Corporation, a Toronto-based real estate powerhouse, has made its mark across Canada and the United States with an impressive, diversified portfolio. Established nearly 30 years ago by Owen Lawson, Parallax was built on a foundation of creativity, camaraderie, and a refreshing approach to development that has influenced Owen’s sons, Stafford and Nigel. Now leading the company alongside business partner Michael Binder, Stafford and Nigel bring a blend of youthful innovation and forward-thinking vision that complements the seasoned expertise of their father.

The name “Parallax” reflects the idea of shifting perspectives and the ability to view opportunities from multiple angles—much like how astronomers use parallax to measure the distance between stars. This philosophy of adaptability and perspective is at the core of Parallax Development’s strategy to maximize value in every project. Starting as a company primarily focused on retail shopping plazas, Parallax has since evolved into a multifaceted developer known for high-quality, diverse projects including street-level retail spaces, high-rise and mid-rise residential condominiums, office buildings, mixed-use facilities, and public-private partnerships.

With a nimble and resourceful approach, Parallax has proven it can succeed across various markets, adapting to different regions and industries. Their expertise spans street-front retail, residential and commercial real estate, and collaborative public-private initiatives. This versatility, combined with an eye toward innovation and future growth, positions Parallax as a leader in the industry, not confined by geography or project type.

Owen’s deep industry knowledge, paired with the energy and foresight of Stafford, Nigel, and Michael, drives Parallax’s success. Together, they represent a team that balances legacy with modern innovation, pushing Parallax Development to new heights in the real estate world. Known for their commitment to quality and an ability to bring complex visions to life, Parallax Development Corporation is poised for a promising future, continually setting new standards in the industry.
