- Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow praised the project as one that "delivers real benefits for residents," and the plan will be sent to Toronto City Council for approval by month's end.
- Construction is expected to begin this fall with a 2028 completion date, providing a lasting home for the team before their May 8 inaugural match against the Washington Mystics.
