Brooker to lead YZD project at Northcrest

Beau Brooker has been appointed as vice-president of construction at Northcrest, where he will lead the YZD project, turning the former Downsview Airport lands in Toronto into a major urban development. Brooker brings a wealth of experience from large-scale projects like the ICE District in Edmonton, and will oversee both job creation and contractor selection for YZD. This appointment signifies a significant step for Northcrest as the YZD project shifts towards its construction phase, starting with the Hangar District. The groundbreaking work is anticipated to begin in early 2026.
