Emboldened with shining glass windows reflecting the glory of the city of Toronto during the day, and sparkling with a dazzling display of light (both by self and by reflection) at night, Festival Tower (located at 80 John St.) is the pinnacle of the King West neighborhood. However, this is just the exterior. On the interior, Festival Tower (as well as the TIFF-Bell Lightbox, which makes up part of the podium of this condominium) is themed around film and cinema. Thanks to the very hard work of the combined teams of Kirkor Architects Planners (responsible for thinking and creating this condo into existence), The Daniels Corporation (responsible for bringing Kirkor’s dream to life), and Mike Niven Interior Design (responsible for how all of the condo units, as well as the lobby and other major rooms look through interior design), with NAK Design Strategies on landscape architecture, they were all able to bring Festival Tower to fruition in 2011, forever cementing its place among the skyscrapers. Festival Tower, while not the tallest tower in King West, let alone Toronto, is still an impressive 42 storeys, comprising of 378 units (the smallest unit is 487 feet², with the largest of them being 2765 feet²). Currently in charge of the property management of Festival Tower is Del Property Management. Regarding what is in the actual condominium itself, buyers can enjoy a swimming pool, a sauna, an exercise room, a concierge service, a dance studio, private movie screening rooms (also used for advance screenings of certain movies, in holding with the cinematic theme of Festival Tower), as well as a common rooftop deck. Thanks to all that can be had here by way of onsite amenities, as well as within the units themselves (inside the units, they consist of studio units and scaling up to 3 bedrooms penthouse units on the 45th & 46th floors), one can find 9-10 foot ceilings, a gourmet kitchens with a central island, upgraded cabinets, modern bathrooms with soaker tubs and a walk-out balcony for seeing Toronto right from the comfort of one’s own condo unit, investors have high potential for a very positive return on investment and time with their historical average PSF.Now, while there are plenty of amenities onsite, it’s also what’s offsite and nearby that buyers can get excited about. All along King St. (which John St. and this condominium at 80 John St meet right outside the condo), homebuyers can find a wealth of restaurants and bars, as well as several small shops and stores. For grocery shopping, by heading down John St. to Front St., then heading west on Front St., a grocery store is nearby, but the best way to take that trip is via one of the numerous TTC bus stops scattered all around (with one being just a short walk up John St. to Adelaide Ave., and a bit to the right on Adelaide). However, right at King and John, investors can take the opportunity to make use of the TTC streetcar that has a stop literally right in front of Festival Tower. By heading west along King St. to Spadina Ave., then south a short distance on Spadina, motorists can access the Gardiner Expressway quickly and easily. Regarding the subway stations, by going down John to Front, but going east instead of west, residents can reach Union Station (also accessing a VIA rail train or GO train from there too).
