About King West
King West — the stretch of King Street West from Bathurst to Dufferin — is Toronto's answer to Manhattan's Meatpacking District. Former industrial warehouses have been converted into dramatic loft condos, while purpose-built glass towers have filled in the gaps. The result is a high-density, pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood with more restaurants per block than almost anywhere in Canada.
The area is dominated by young professionals, couples, and empty nesters drawn to the lock-and-leave condo lifestyle. The King streetcar puts you at Union Station in 15 minutes, and the upcoming Ontario Line at King-Bathurst will transform transit access even further. Streets like Brant, Mercer, and the Duncan Strip are packed with internationally recognized restaurants.
