King West

Downtown's entertainment district

Overview

King West is where the young professional crowd lives, works, and plays. The strip from Spadina to Bathurst has the city's highest concentration of restaurants, cocktail bars, and boutique hotels — and the condo buildings that line Wellington, Niagara, and Stewart have some of the most active rental markets in Toronto.

Most housing here is condos in newer glass towers, though pockets of townhouses and converted warehouse lofts exist. Expect one-bedrooms to start around $680K and two-bedrooms in the low $1Ms.
