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.
![A rather beautiful image of the lobby. Everything is sleek and shiny.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/web_1-2-1.jpg)
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
![A quick look at the Metropole at 7 King Street East.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/7-King-Street-East-Unit-1510-Feature-Sheet.jpg)

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.
![Photo of kitchen and appliances.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2_web_1-6-1.jpg)
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.
![We see the kitchen from another angle. Most noteworthy is the tall windows and natural light.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/3_web_1-5-1.jpg)
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.
![First of all, it should be noted this is a 3D photo and not real. We see the bedroom and hall.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Master_Bedroom_final.jpg)
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).
![View of bedroom from another angle. The floors are so bright and glossy.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/1_web_1-15-1.jpg)
It also features His & Hers closets with sliding glass doors (convenient for getting dressed).
![So here we have another virtually-staged photo. This one is of the closet and we can see so many clothes and other items.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Hers_closet_final.jpg)
The 4-piece ensuite bathroom includes a shower, tub, under-sink cabinets, and a large mirror.
![Our first look at the master bath and we can see it's rather large.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/1_web_1-17-1.jpg)
Second Bedroom & Bath
The second bedroom is also quite spacious, with massive windows that catch plenty of sunlight.
![Yet another virtually staged photo. This shows the 2nd bedroom and large windows.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2nd_bedroom_final.jpg)
At the opposite end is a built-in closet with mirror doors.
![While not as large, this room maybe better lit thanks to the closet's reflective exterior.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/2_web_1-12-1.jpg)
The Metropole has a smaller second bathroom, another reason why it’s ideal for families.

About The Financial District
![Photograph of buildings in Toronto's Financial District. We can see so many lights, but less of their tops because of the fog.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/6747019289_9c71ecc241_b.jpg)
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.
![View of Eaton Centre looking down. It seems like many of the people are blurred.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/379857741_b055d7513f_b.jpg)
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.”
![This photo shows a grilled octopus and some other food.](https://winslai.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/seafood-2408849_1280.jpg)
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.
Other Location Highlights:
- Upscale shopping at nearby Yorkville, home to Chanel, Hermes and Holt Renfrew flagship stores
- Huge variety of bars, cafes, bakeries, and multicultural restaurants
- Family-friendly attractions like the Royal Ontario Museum, Ripley’s Aquarium and AGO
- 4-minute walk to Hockey Hall of Fame
- Nearby grocers include Metro, McEwan, and historic St. Lawrence Market
- Easy access to Toronto PATH, which connects travelers to 1200 shops, 6 transit hubs, and countless services
