Building Details
Located on 7 King Street East, The Metropole is a classically elegant building which recently underwent major renovations.
As such, residents can enjoy the sophisticated designs of the past while indulging in modern amenities like new common areas.
Because 7 King Street is at the heart of Toronto’s Financial District, homeowners have access to innumerable banks, coffee shops, restaurants, malls, and office buildings.
The Space
The first thing you’ll notice is just how spacious and well-lit everything is.
At almost 1000 square feet, the former shouldn’t come as a surprise. And since the unit is furnished with multiple floor-to-ceiling windows, there’s an abundance of sunlight all year round.
The living and dining areas are combined for aesthetic flow. Another advantage of this design is that both rooms have fantastic views.
The Kitchen
Marble floors, wooden cabinets, new appliances, and a breakfast bar—while most condos have tiny kitchens, 7 King Street East goes all out.
Not only does it look gorgeous, using classic tones and materials, but it’s also very functional.
For example, the overhead cabinets have fluorescent lights mounted under them, making it easier to see at night.
7 King Street East comes with the following appliances:
- A stainless-steel stove, fridge, dishwasher and range hood
- A top-loading washer and dryer
Master Bedroom & Bath
The Metropole has 2 bedrooms, making it the perfect condo for individuals, couples or families.
First, there’s the master bedroom, which is positively huge.
9.5 foot ceilings make it seem even more spacious, while the gray walls exude an atmosphere of harmony (ideal for a place of rest and relaxation).
It also features His & Hers closets with sliding glass doors (convenient for getting dressed).
The 4-piece ensuite bathroom includes a shower, tub, under-sink cabinets, and a large mirror.
Second Bedroom & Bath
The second bedroom is also quite spacious, with massive windows that catch plenty of sunlight.
At the opposite end is a built-in closet with mirror doors.
The Metropole has a smaller second bathroom, another reason why it’s ideal for families.

About The Financial District
The Metropole lies in the Church-Yonge Corridor at the cross-section of King Street East and Yonge.
This puts it at the very heart of Toronto’s Financial District and offers up endless possibilities for food, fun, fashion, and travel.
Let’s start with shopping. A 7-minute walk will take you to the Eaton Centre, home to 250 retailers including Nordstrom, Apple, Lululemon, and Swarovski.
Starved after shopping?
The Financial District has some of the best restaurants around (considering all the business lunches that take place here, that makes perfect sense).
For example, there’s Carisma, which ranks #2 on OpenTable’s list of best restaurants in Toronto’s Financial District.
A grueling 2-minute walk from The Metropole, DineTO describes the Italian eatery as “Sexy, stylish and classic.”
Or check out The Chase (a 6-minute walk from home), which TorontoLife calls “The city’s flashiest seafood spot.”
You’ll find such delicacies as caviar, cured salmon, hailibut, and grilled octopus on its menu.
