From its opening in 2002 to 2014, the Sheppard line spurred over $1{{nbsp}}billion of construction of new housing,<ref name="Metro-2014-12-04" /> including several high-rise condominium towers, along its route as [[transit-oriented development]]s. Since 2000, condominium towers have been built around all five stations on the line, with most of the new developments being centred around Bayview and Bessarion stations.<ref name="morrow" /> The Daniels Corporation built a six-tower condominium development, called NY Towers, north of [[Ontario Highway 401|Highway 401]] between Bayview and Bessarion stations; Arc Condominiums on the northeast corner of [[Bayview Avenue]] and Sheppard Avenue; and terraced condos just east of their NY Towers. Shane Baghai built a multi-tower development in the area.

In 2007, Leslie and [[Bessarion station]]s were the least-used stations in the system;<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.thestar.com/news/2007/11/24/still_a_subway_to_nowhere.html |title=Still a subway to nowhere? |work=Toronto Star |first=Ivor |last=Tossell |date=November 24, 2007 |access-date=February 10, 2017 |archive-date=August 29, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170829162226/https://www.thestar.com/news/2007/11/24/still_a_subway_to_nowhere.html |url-status=live}}</ref> in 2015, four of twenty planned buildings of Concord Adex Investments' condominium complex, [[Concord Park Place]], located between these two stations, had been completed.<ref name="post">{{cite web |last=McDowell |first=Adam |date=November 9, 2012 |title=Sheppard subway gets moving |url=https://nationalpost.com/life/homes/condos/sheppard-subway-gets-moving |access-date=February 10, 2017 |work=National Post}}</ref> The complex is developed on the site of a former [[Canadian Tire]] warehouse/distribution centre, though Canadian Tire retains a retail location there. There is also development around Swedish furniture chain [[IKEA]] and [[McDonald's Canada|McDonald's]] in the immediate area.
