Tas Development

TAS targets opportunities that provide value for investors and have verifiable social and environmental effects as an industry leader in impact real estate, a Certified B Corporation, a signatory to PRI, and a member of the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN). The Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area is home to 21 properties totalling close to 6.5 million square feet in TAS’s current pipeline and portfolio.

TAS concentrates on combating climate change, expanding accessibility and fairness, and fostering social capital to establish neighbourhoods—and ultimately cities—where people can prosper and feel a part of something larger. To push the limits of innovation and investigate what is possible, TAS promotes dialogue and teamwork. They are guided in this endeavour by a variety of concepts. The 4 Pillars of Sustainability, which are principles that assist in developing ecologically friendly and sustainable initiatives, is one of the most popular of these manuals. They also adhere to their two city-shaping processes, which are food security and affordable homeownership.

TAS is a mixed-use building developer with a passion for enhancing the urban environment. They are dedicated to making a positive difference in the Greater Toronto Area and regard themselves as entrepreneurs who stand up for the common good. They work to create interconnected communities because they are convinced that cities with greater interconnection are more attractive and resilient. This belief is reflected in the way they conduct their own business. They are aware that they must collaborate with their stakeholders to construct developments of which they can be proud. They seek to promote varied arts and cultures, strengthen ties among neighbours, and support the local economy through this cooperative approach.
