Starlight Investments Celebrates Topping Off Milestone for Infill Development in Ontario

Toronto, ON – November 25, 2025 – Starlight Investments (“Starlight”) is proud to announce the topping off of 557 The West Mall – a major construction milestone in the delivery of 249 new suites within one of the company’s key rental housing communities in Etobicoke, ON. The milestone was marked by a celebratory event alongside team members and partners on November 13.

Infill Development: Key to Expanding the Rental Market

Located on the east side of The West Mall, just south of Rathburn Road, 557 The West Mall is a standout example of Starlight’s infill strategy, which reimagines and leverages underutilized land on its existing properties to address the urgent need for new rental housing. By adding a new 21-storey rental apartment residence to the site, adjacent to the property’s pre-existing 14-storey residential tower, Starlight is significantly expanding the community’s rental housing options while maintaining the character of the neighbourhood.

“Infill projects like 557 The West Mall are essential to increasing rental housing supply in cities like Toronto, where land is limited. By utilizing the available land on our residential sites and leveraging existing infrastructure, we are creating new homes and amenities where people want to live and enhancing our rental communities,” said Howard Paskowitz, Vice President, Development and Public Affairs, Starlight Investments. ​“The topping off ceremony is a tribute to the skilled tradespeople and construction teams bringing this vision to life.”

A Commitment to Creating Thriving Communities

When complete, the community will feature a mix of one‑, two- and three-bedroom suites and an array of new indoor and outdoor amenities, including a modern fitness centre, games rooms, co-working spaces, a rooftop terrace and dog run. Additional features include improved landscaping, pedestrian connections, new bicycle parking, and secure underground parking, all designed to serve both new and existing residents.

Surrounded by convenient local services and amenities, including schools, libraries, community centres, parks, and direct TTC connections, 557 The West Mall exemplifies Starlight’s commitment to building safe, welcoming and complete communities that enable residents to thrive and grow over the long term.

The topping off of 557 The West Mall is a testament to the momentum behind Starlight’s broader development strategy, and to the company’s ongoing role in delivering much-needed rental housing solutions in Toronto and beyond.
