The Minto story
Almost 60 years… and counting
When Minto began in 1955, four Ottawa brothers with big dreams set out to build quality homes with exceptional design and superior craftsmanship. By 1957, and under the name Minto, Louis, Gilbert, Irving and Lorry Greenberg saw all of it and more start to become a reality.
Five decades later, we’ve grown into an integrated real estate development, construction and management company, with operations in Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary and Florida. With some 70,000 new homes under our belts, more than 17,000 residential rental homes and apartments to manage, and a commercial portfolio of more than 3 million square feet of office, retail and industrial space, we’ve certainly come a long way.
Bringing communities to life
Today, we build more than just brick and mortar structures for people to live, work and stay in. We build dreams right from the ground up. With unsurpassed quality and unrivalled integrity, innovation, commitment and value, every one of our homes, condominiums, rental properties and commercial spaces is thoughtfully planned and built on a foundation of excellence. And that means healthy, vibrant communities you can feel good about.
Making the world a little greener
To us, green building isn’t just a nice to have. It’s part of who we are. That’s why we’re consciously aware of every aspect of our operations and properties – from start to finish and every year after. From custom homes and rentals to master planned communities and commercial real estate, when it comes to the environment we’re committed to making a real difference.
