HISTORIC QUEEN STREET EAST
BUSINESS IMPROVEMENT AREA

Restoration In Progress


WELCOME!

In response to requests from local Queen Street East businesses and residents,
Councillor Chris Moise is excited to spearhead and support the revitalization of
the Historic Queen St East Improvement Area.

Old Queen Street East, nestled between Victoria Street and River Street, is not
just a prime location to live, work and engage, but a testament to our city’s
rich past with its beautiful architecture dating back to the 19th century. This
vibrant, multicultural area is also experiencing a resurgence of new restaurants
and boutiques that would be served well by a BIA that advocates for their
interests.

This website will serve as a central point for information and updates on the
progress of the revitalization of the Historic Queen St East BIA.


WHAT IS A BIA?

A Business Improvement Area (BIA) is a “made-in-Toronto” innovation that allows
local business and commercial property owners to join together within a defined
area and work in partnership with the City to create thriving, competitive, and
safe business areas that attract shoppers, diners, tourists, and new businesses.

By working collectively as a BIA, local businesses have the organizational and
funding capacity to be catalysts for civic improvement, enhancing the quality of
life in their local neighbourhood and the city.

In 1970, responding to a request by a Toronto business association, Ontario
passed enabling legislation to create the world’s first Business Improvement
Area (BIA) in Bloor West Village. Since the creation of this first BIA, many
more have been established with more than 270 BIAs now in Ontario.

The BIA concept is now global, adopted by more than 500 communities across
Canada, 2000 throughout the United States, and thousands more around the world
including Europe, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Toronto now has over 80 BIAs across the City — the largest number of BIAs of any
urban centre in the world — representing 45,000 members.

Together, they generate more than $34 million in funding towards street and
sidewalk beautification, marketing and promotional campaigns, street festivals,
clean street/graffiti removal campaigns, and crime prevention strategies. BIAs,
like resident associations, also act as a unified voice to address issues on
behalf of their membership.


CALCULATE YOUR BIA LEVY BELOW!

The City of Toronto’s BIA Office has assessed all eligible properties within the
Historic Queen Street East BIA boundaries to be $500,000,000.

The calculator below assumes a modest annual BIA budget of $300,000 which is
enough to pay for a Coordinator/Executive Director and fund economic and
cultural initiatives such as beautification, clean streets teams, street events,
etc.

Toronto’s diversity includes the many Indigenous nations and peoples whose
traditional territory is covered by Treaty 13 and the Williams Treaties. We
honour and acknowledge that Ward 13 is located on the traditional territory of
the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee
and the Wendat peoples, and is now home to many First Nations, Inuit, and Métis
Peoples. Diversity is our strength, and we’re committed to building a better
Toronto — together.
