The mix of restaurants, clubs, condos and offices roughly bounded by Spadina, Queen, University and Front is known as the Toronto Entertainment District.
The District is becoming more urbane with each passing day. Nightclubs are making way to Class A office space, and surface parking lots are being scooped up by developers and transformed into high rise condominiums. Daniels is developing a block-wide landmark project at the corner of John and King known as Festival Tower. The base of the tower will serve as the future home of the Toronto International Film Festival, bringing incredible exposure to the neighbourhood each September.
Nearly every remaining surface parking lot in the District is slated for a new high-rise, and over the coming years many thousands of new residents will call it home. With its central location close to the shopping of Queen St, the University subway line, Bay Street, and the lake, the Entertainment District is an excellent option for young professionals who don't mind having some excitement right at their doorstep.
