Davisville

The new Davisville replacement school will be a three-storey building with 8,200 m² of floor area built, capable of accommodating over 700 students, as well as a 5-room childcare center for over 60 children.

The new structure will include new outdoor elements, including an artificial turf field, children’ play areas, and an outdoor classroom. The new configuration places the building closer to Davisville Ave. with the outdoor uses placed along the quiet, primarily residential Millwood Road. A small rooftop playground at the southwest corner of the current building would be rebuilt within the new school, featuring a hardscaped walkway, hardscape, mulch, and sand play areas, and a green roof element.

An underground parking garage with a capacity for 60 vehicles and 40 bicycle parking spaces would serve the new school, while an additional 8 surface parking spaces and 8 bike locking spaces will be located above ground. The inclusion of underground parking frees up a large space at the southwest corner of the site, which will eventually be the site of a new City of Toronto aquatic and community recreation facility, to be built during the second phase of redevelopment.
