Welcome to Hazelburn Co-operative Homes

About Our Co-op

Located in the heart of downtown Toronto, Hazelburn Cooperative housing is close to everywhere you want to be. In just minutes you can easily access a diversity of cuisine, green spaces, boutique shops and more. Better yet, Hazelburn is just minutes away from the Toronto Eaton Centre and Dundas Square where you can find all of these things and more. Hazelburn is also close to practical amenities like hospitals, banks, and grocery stores. It’s this convenience that our community loves!! Whether you choose to walk, bike, or drive in the city you will find that Hazelburn’s location provides you with the chance to enjoy the best of what downtown living has to offer.

Hazelburn feels like a village within a larger city and our Co-op is like a community within a building, a place where people say hello to each other and care about their neighbours. The co-operative philosophy is about creating an inviting, safe and sustainable environment for everyone. Hazelburn gathers people who want to live where others embrace co-operative values. Our members belong to committees that collectively oversee the management and maintenance of our award winning rooftop garden, our recycling program and many other areas of our building. Hazelburn provides a secure and affordable living environment in a supportive community for all its members.
