AT HOME WITH URBAN LIVING

KING WEST VILLAGE IS ON FIRE!

Metaphorically speaking of course…this is one of the hottest areas in Toronto to live in, work in and visit. In recent years, King West has undergone a fantastic transformation that now epitomizes urban living in the city.

Where there were once huge industrial operations, now sit modern Victorian-style townhomes. Where streets named Massey and Battery Road evoke the manufacturing plants that built the city, now rise spectacular lofts and condominiums.

But it’s not all residential; the flavour of King West is also found in its great shops, independent galleries, restaurants and clubs. King West is parks, carwashes, fitness centers, health food shops and yoga classes. Have a morning coffee at a café and then hop the streetcar for a five-minute ride to Bay Street or the subway station. Or drive to the Gardiner Expressway – it’s less than five minutes away.

But what really makes King West is the genuine sense of community here. You actually know your neighbours, you see the same people jogging down the street, shopping and having espresso. It’s this ambience of community that pervades King West and allows the people here to be at home with urban living.
