About King West condo buildings
This guide compares five condo towers that buyers and listings often group under King West: The PJ Condos, Picasso on Richmond, Cinema Tower, The Hudson and King Charlotte. Four of them stand east of Spadina Avenue, in the blocks between John Street and Spadina that this site’s neighbourhood guides call the Entertainment District; The Hudson is at King and Spadina. Strata and most listings use the King West name for all five, so that is the name used here.
More about King West condo buildings
They were completed within about ten years of one another: The Hudson in 2006, Cinema Tower in 2013, and The PJ Condos, Picasso and King Charlotte in 2016, according to Strata. In height they run from The Hudson’s 21 storeys to The PJ’s 48, and in size from about 230 suites at King Charlotte to about 440 at Cinema Tower. Strata gives two suite counts for Picasso, 402 and 405, and both are shown below. Amenities differ as well: Strata lists outdoor pools at The PJ Condos and King Charlotte, rooftop decks at Picasso, Cinema Tower, The Hudson and King Charlotte, and media rooms at Cinema Tower and The Hudson.
Two more towers on the same blocks have their own pages: Charlie at 8 Charlotte Street, across the street from King Charlotte, and Theatre Park at 224 King Street West.
In the MLS® system all five are in Waterfront Communities C1. Buildings this close together can still differ on fees, amenities and rules, so the useful comparison is building against building: recent sales of similar layouts, the reserve fund and any special assessments in the status certificate, and each building’s rules on leasing and short-term rentals.
