Surplus & Former School Properties
#6
Toronto has, for the most part, kept a good stock of urban schools.  In North York Centre, they're dealing with condo population explosion by busing kids out to the further-flung suburban schools that are seeing population declines as the suburbs age and de-populate.  The local school, Avondale Public School, is about to be completely rebuilt to handle several hundred new students. Here's an interesting presentation about that.

Additionally, in downtown Toronto:
For the most part, right now the condos are re-filling enrollment that was declining due to the general depopulation of downtown of the 70-90s.
The CityPlace forest is scheduled to have a brand new school built in its final development parcel.
