RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Section ThirtyOne - 06-16-2017 (06-14-2017, 08:56 AM)tomh009 Wrote:(06-13-2017, 10:55 PM)Section ThirtyOne Wrote: Of note: the vacant lot on the southeast corner of Belmont and Union (adjacent to the Arabella Park building) has been fenced off and no trespassing signs installed. Makes sense, there are a bunch of drums on the property now as well. Thanks! RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Pheidippides - 06-18-2017 Application for zoning change at 588 and 600 Queen St S (the Nougat property and the garage next door): RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - jeffster - 06-18-2017 (06-18-2017, 05:35 PM)Pheidippides Wrote: Application for zoning change at 588 and 600 Queen St S (the Nougat property and the garage next door): Probably another apartment, my guess? Anyone know how to access those zoning. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Markster - 06-18-2017 It should appear on this page, eventually: https://www.kitchener.ca/en/insidecityhall/LandUsePlanningNews.asp RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - tomh009 - 06-19-2017 (06-18-2017, 07:10 PM)jeffster Wrote:(06-18-2017, 05:35 PM)Pheidippides Wrote: Application for zoning change at 588 and 600 Queen St S (the Nougat property and the garage next door): Currently zoned MU-1 and MU-2, which allows 13.5m and 2.0 FSR (MU-1), and 24m and 4.0 FSR (MU-2). The neighbouring Iron Horse Towers (a Drewlo property) is MU-3 so I expect this is what they are applying for, too. MU-3 removes the 24m maximum although the 4.0 FSR remains (subject to zoning variances). Yes, most likely high-rise residential. There really isn't demand for high-rise office space this far from the core, but it's a nice location for apartments or condos. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Pheidippides - 06-19-2017 According to the Kitchener permit search there are 3, 2017 demolition permits for 588 Queen St S for structures of 500, 200, and 150 sqft. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - white_brian - 06-20-2017 There are 3 buildings in the back as well, we use to have a Shop back there RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 06-20-2017 Seems more like a clean-up and reno of the Nougat building, more than preps for any imminent redevelopment. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Pheidippides - 06-22-2017 Don't remember if we have seen this render of the new Schreiter's location at Gage/Belmont: RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Owen - 06-29-2017 https://www.therecord.com/news-story/7397459-manulife-pulls-the-wraps-off-renovated-space/ ... "Adolphe did hint that Manulife is looking into further real estate investment in downtown Kitchener." ... A little bird told me that the parking lot across the street (boxed in by Water and Francis, Joseph and Charles) is in the planning stage for a major development: 3 story podium plus two +20 story towers. Additional Manulife offices in the podium with residential condos above. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - rangersfan - 06-29-2017 That would be a very substantial investment in Downtown, hopefully we hear something official in the near future. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Spokes - 06-29-2017 Wow. If that bird is correct, that changes things in a big way RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - KevinL - 06-29-2017 Indeed, that fills a large gap in the downtown puzzle.

RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - DHLawrence - 06-29-2017 It's going to be harder for U-Haul to justify staying there the more these developments box it in. |
