The Dundas West Business Improvement Area is a vibrant commercial and residential neighbourhood that stretches along Dundas West, from the CNR Tracks west of Lansdowne and continues eastward to the corner of Rusholme Road / Lisgar Street and Dundas St. West, within Ward 18 of the City of Toronto.

Culturally diverse, affordable and friendly, this area of Toronto is attractive to young families, artists and new Canadians.

Formed in 2006, and a member of TABIA (the Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas), the Dundas West BIA has strived to make its main street a great place to work, shop, live and visit.

Our Donations Policy

The  Board of the Dundas West Business Improvement Area recognizes the importance of contributing to a wide variety of initiatives and organizations through donations and sponsorships. However, given that the BIA represents many small and medium sized businesses with widely divergent and even competing interests, the decision has been made to not make any donations or offer any sponsorships in cash or its equivalents.

In lieu of this, the BIA will consider offering opportunities for fundraising activities to take place during our larger public events, for which the proceeds will revert to non-profit and/or charitable organizations within our immediate community that are not in direct competition with any of our existing members.
