The Building

A new presence on King Street East.

An eight-storey podium of shops and services meets the historic streetscape at grade. Above it, a slender tower in bronze-toned glass rises 43 storeys — a landmark built to read as part of the old city and as something entirely new.

Location

The centre of downtown's next chapter.

The St. Lawrence neighbourhood sits where the Financial District, Old Town, the Distillery and the new east-end waterfront meet — and some of the largest revitalization plans in the city are unfolding within a few blocks of the front door.

Signature Service

Your Rolls-Royce is waiting.

Residents can book Allure's own Rolls-Royce and chauffeur for the trips that matter — dinner across town, an evening at the theatre, the run to Pearson. No traffic to fight and nowhere to park: you step out at the door and the car leaves without you having to think about it.
