King Edward Hotel, Heritage hotel building in Downtown Toronto, Canada
The King Edward Hotel rises 18 floors at 37 King Street East, with its stone facade extending across an entire city block.
The 1903 hotel, named after King Edward VII, received an additional tower in 1921 designed by architect Henry Ives Cobb.
The Crystal Ballroom on the top two floors served as Toronto's primary social venue until fire regulations forced its closure in the 1950s.
The hotel contains multiple dining establishments, meeting spaces, and luxury accommodations within walking distance of Toronto's financial and entertainment districts.
Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's separate suite bookings in 1964 sparked protests from local residents outside the hotel.
