The town of Newmarket is a municipality in the heart of the York Region, in Southern
Ontario, located approximately 25 kilometers north of the City of Toronto. A part of the Greater
Toronto Area and the Golden Horseshoe, Newmarket is well connected by highway to the
Toronto area, served by two interchanges along Highway 404 and connected to Highway 9. Such
close proximity to the City of Toronto has seen the town of Newmarket expand quite rapidly
over the past decade, to a multicultural community of just over 84,000. This number is projected
to 98,000 by 2026.
Although Newmarket has undergone substantial and sustained growth, it remains a close-
knit community offering a variety of business, residential and recreational opportunities. For
both residents and visitors, Newmarket caters to all their needs and more, with was plethora of
big city conveniences all fulfilled with a small town charm that you just cannot get anywhere
else. The intermingling of beautiful, century old Main Street shops, modern commercial plazas,
lush parks and a flourishing indoor shopping mall creates a social and visual ambiance that
cannot be overlooked.
To preserve the town’s natural characteristics and charm, Newmarket’s
2006 Official Plan looks to balance the desire to maintain the present low-density urban form
characterized by the segregation of residential, retail and employment uses and the need to
comply with Ontario’s Places to Grown legislation. As such, four areas of Newmarket
have been selected to absorb the majority of planned population growth and accommodate mixed
usages on sites well-served by transit.
It is quite clear that Newmarket is a town that values its rich historical past and small town
pleasantries, while being fully aware that growth is inevitable and should be well prepared for. In
