About imageAbout imageAbout image
Blackthorn began 39 years ago in a modest Toronto garage. From those humble roots, we’ve grown into a trusted leader in real estate development, delivering communities and sites valued at up to $250 million in both the public and ​private sectors.

Our mission is simple: create innovative solutions that serve every stakeholder in a development project. We are deeply committed to our partners, our employees, and the communities we help shape. 

Every project we undertake is guided by a passion for excellence and a dedication to success; measured economically, socially, and environmentally.  At Blackthorn, we don’t just build developments; we build opportunities, strengthen communities, and create lasting impact.
