Location
KING a perfect walk score and transit score since it is located in the heart of King West’s Entertainment District.
Currently on the KING Toronto site at 485-539 King Street West is the installation of Unzipped, designed by Bjarke Ingels and The BIG Group, which began as part of the Serpentine Galleries in London, UK and will be open to the public as an exhibition celebrating the launch of KING Toronto.
Benefiting from its certifications for housing, retail, and boutique office space, it is conceived as a vertical community meant to expand on the heritage building already existing on the site.
The building is organized as a traditional perimeter block with a public plaza in the center.
Surrounding the plaza it rises as sets of pixels, each pixel set at the size of a room; rotated 45 degrees from the street grid to increase exposure to light and air.
