Live in the heart of King Street West in a boutique loft where upscale restaurants, nightlife and trendy shops await you at your door step. This unit faces East so it's sheltered from the noise and has an unobstructed view of the Zen Garden -- there are only a handful of units in the...

There will be 3 levels. I believe a passage way will be created to connect to the current lot that Quad + Allied is occupying. If that is the case then P3 is all private residential parking, P2 and P1 is Allied owned so right now it is shared between corporate and general public. There used...

Anyone know if there will be plans for the Toika Lounge building and small parking lot beside it? I believe it is 471 Richmond St. Basically the North side of Zen Lofts (42 Camden). Looking at a unit there and don't want to invest if the view is going to be blocked in the near future.

Definitely a great addition to that street. I really love Camden because it is still one of those side streets in the King West core that tends to be quieter and less traffic.

Oops, sorry I meant all the boroughs + Manhattan included! Thanks for correction.

I've lived in NYC and loved every moment of it! When I returned to Toronto it was difficult (and almost devastating) to accept that I couldn't find a nice restaurant that served a 3 course meal past 11pm or I couldn't take clients to a happening lounge/bar on Monday night. Downtown streets get...

Yes, Corktown is an up and coming neighbourhood but I'm specifically interested and concered with the downtown market. I wouldn't consider St. Lawrence the inner core either. Buyers do dictate the market value b/c we are the ones willing to offer more than asking price and getting into...

From what I've heard, Freed has a pretty good reputation. Everything I've seen has been nice and they are really putting the stamp on glamourizing and branding the King West neighbourhood. What are people's thoughts/experiences with Freed?

It's definitely an interesting place with lots of good history but looks like they are cleaning up the neighbourhood and closing down. At least it is a designated heritage building so it won't be replaced with another condo! http://www.eyeweekly.com/article/78980

I just got Sun Project roller shades and spent about $1700 to cover 10ft x 14ft. The lady at the store is very knowledgable and has been in business for a very long time so I trust her opinion. Plus she could have made more money trying to sell me on Hunter Douglas. Basically she told me that...

No matter what city I've called home I have always lived in the downtown core as I recognize the value of location, convenience and having an awesome social life! Despite all the recession talk in the last year I haven't really noticed a price drop or more inventory in the downtown market. If...

I'm interested in moving into this building and have seen a few units already. Would love to hear from current owners about their exp living there. How's the property management, board, workmanship of the units, etc?

This area is getting super busy! I'm there for the gym, Metro, bank etc. a couple times a week and sadly enough there is only one way to get in/out if you are coming off Stratchan to East Liberty. As this neighbourhood grows cars are starting to pile up now (doesn't help that they are parked...

Went into sales office a few days ago and sales person claimed units are 50% sold already. What BS! The office hasn't been up that long (less than a month I think) and last condo board meeting I sat in on Cresford was violating the fire truck route so they put a halt to the project and the...

Sorry to hear about your bad experience. Maybe it was just one or two bad employees that you had to deal with (in which case I would have called another location to talk to someone else). Personally I have nothing bad to say about them. I've been to 2 locations (College and Avenue Rd) and...
