07Risks and environment at 4000 Yonge St

Flood and shoreline hazards
Outside hazard areas; inside TRCA's regulated area This address
TRCA's maps show this address is outside the areas that could flood from rivers in a major storm (TRCA plans for a storm like Hurricane Hazel in 1954) and outside lake shoreline hazards. It is inside TRCA's regulated area, so additions, grading or other work may need a TRCA permit. Basement flooding from overloaded sewers can still happen anywhere in the city.

Source: TRCA Regulation mapping 2025

Lead in tap-water tests, postal area M4N
1.5% of tests above Ontario's limit Your area · M4N
In postal area M4N, 4 of 269 home tap-water samples (1.5%) tested above Ontario's limit for lead (10 micrograms per litre). Across Toronto, 2.0% of samples did, so M4N is about the same as the city overall. Health Canada recommends a stricter limit of 5 micrograms per litre: 17 samples here (6.3%) were above it. These are voluntary tests, mostly from older homes, so they don't tell you about this house. Lead comes from old pipes and plumbing, not the City's treatment plants. Buildings with more than six units don't have lead service pipes.
