Developer information, as at March 2023Storey counts, suite specifications and the amenity programme below are the developer's as published when we wrote this page, more than three years ago. Confirm anything you intend to rely on against the current agreement of purchase and sale. Ask us where the project stands.
Olive Residences sits on Olive Avenue, just off Yonge north of Finch. The location is the case for it: Yonge and Finch is one of the better-connected corners of the city, and the building is a short walk from the station rather than a bus ride from it.

Location and transit
Finch station is the northern terminus of Line 1 and a regional interchange: TTC subway and buses, YRT and VIVA, and GO. Highways 401 and 404 are both close. The developer's marketing quoted a Transit Score of 99 — that is Walk Score Inc.'s metric, cited as it stood in March 2023, and we have not independently verified it.
The stretch of Yonge between Finch and Sheppard is a genuine high street rather than a strip of frontage: full-size grocery, a dense concentration of Korean and Persian restaurants and grocers, and enough of an evening economy that residents are not obliged to go downtown.
Suites and amenities as marketed
Ten-foot smooth-finished ceilings in select rooms, engineered laminate flooring with acoustic underlay, glass showers, integrated appliances and custom kitchen cabinetry. The amenity programme included a gym, yoga studio, golf simulator, party room, a children's play space, and an outdoor terrace with barbecue and dining areas.
Amenity programmes and finish schedules are routinely revised between launch and registration. Check them against the current disclosure statement rather than against this page.
North York Centre
Yonge and Finch sits inside the North York Centre Secondary Plan area, and North York Centre is an Urban Growth Centre under the provincial Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe — a designation that directs density toward it. That is a real planning fact and it is the reason this corner keeps getting taller.
It cuts both ways for a buyer. Designated growth means sustained development, which supports the area over time and also means more competing new supply delivering into the same market. Worth pricing in rather than treating as one-directional.
The district
Olive Residences is in TRREB district C14. Our Willowdale page reports that district — the current benchmark, sales and days on market, updated monthly. That is what to price a resale or an assignment against; a launch price list is not market evidence.
