I don't really see King as a replacement for Dundas. Right now King's mostly fancy restaurants and massive parking lots. Dundas has three times as many storefronts leaving a lot more room for vacancies and payday-blight. If anything I'd say Richmond has become the new "shopping avenue." However, I definitely agree that King Street is becoming a new destination in itself.
I've lived downtown for almost 6 months and I haven't spent much time visiting stores on King. With the exception of getting a burger from The Works and visiting the Market twice I wouldn't notice if King Street ceased to exist.
