Good luck commuting on the DVP everyday!
Ditto - from a liveability perspective, Harbourfront is on the wrong side of the Gardiner which, believe it or not, can make a difference. King/Spadina = lots of construction and not a lot of basic amenities (like access to good supermarkets, etc.) like you would find near the St. Lawrence Market or even Harbourfront, which now has a massive Loblaws relatively close by.
