Humber Bay Shores

A dense cluster of waterfront condominium towers with parkland and the trail at the door.

Written by Nick Ntoukas, Toronto realtor · Chestnut Park Real Estate · Updated August 2026

Humber Bay Shores is built on filled land at the mouth of Mimico Creek, and it is the most concentrated waterfront condominium development in the city outside downtown — a run of towers along the lake with parkland, marinas and the Martin Goodman Trail wrapping around them. The views are the proposition, and south-facing units command real premiums for them. It is almost entirely an apartment market, built over the last twenty years, with a young and substantially rental population. The practical constraint is access: the neighbourhood is served by one main road and the Lake Shore streetcar, and both fill at peak.
