Life at Kingsway Crescent: The Kingsway, Modernized

If you’ve ever driven down Dundas Street West through the Kingsway, you know the look: Tudor-style mansions, old-growth trees, and a very specific “old money” quiet. Kingsway Crescent (officially 160 Kingsway Crescent) is the modern answer to that.
Developed by Harhay Developments, this isn’t a skyscraper. It’s a boutique building that feels more like a private club than a condo tower. It was designed for a specific type of person: someone who wants the prestige and greenery of The Kingsway but doesn’t want the hassle of maintaining a 100-year-old house.

The Vibe: An Art Gallery You Can Sleep In

The first thing you notice isn’t the concierge desk; it’s the art. The building’s defining feature is its partnership with renowned Toronto artist Peter Triantos.

• The Lobby: Instead of generic hotel art, the lobby acts as a permanent gallery for Triantos’ famous “Jelly Bean” series. It gives the entrance a pop of vibrant colour that feels sophisticated and distinctly “Torontonian.”
• The Atmosphere: Because there are only 102 units (plus a handful of townhomes), the building is quiet. You recognize your neighbors. It lacks the transient, Airbnb-hotel feel of downtown towers.

The Suite Experience

Harhay is known for efficient, livable layouts, and they leaned into “home-style” comforts here.

• Outdoor Living: This is the biggest selling point. The building steps back as it rises, which creates massive terraces for many units—some up to 1,000 square feet. If you are downsizing from a house, this is one of the few condos where you can actually keep your full-sized patio furniture and BBQ.
• The View Lottery:
• • North/East: These are the money shots. You look over the Home Smith Park and the Humber River tree canopy. It’s pure green.
  • South/West: You get plenty of light, but you are facing the residential neighborhood or Dundas Street.

The Neighborhood: The “Royal York” Life

You aren’t in the chaotic downtown core; you are in Etobicoke’s “golden mile.”

• Groceries & Errands: You are practically next door to Humbertown Shopping Centre. This isn’t a typical mall; it’s a community hub with a high-end Loblaws, LCBO, and local bakeries.
• Nature: The Humber River Recreational Trail is literally your backyard. You can bike from your front door all the way to the waterfront without ever touching a main road.
