Sorry, I meant to say the article changed to list the building at 31 stories. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - rangersfan - 12-01-2017 The CBC article has been updated to show a list of the ten projects going through the site plan review : 345 King St. W. for a six-storey office building 114 Victoria St. S. for an office and residential property 24 Gaukel St. which includes 31-storey residential building with ground floor commercial 54 Water St. which is Manulife's project that includes Francis and Charles 1 Queen St N. 3 storey addition to the existing building (residential units with ground floor commercial) 334 King St. W. 2 storey building with ground floor retail and upper floor office 51 David St. 6 storey residential building 112 Benton St. 15 storey residential building. That is a second building for Arrow Lofts which is has received final approval. 399 Queen St. S. Barra on Queen is a 6 storey residential building 607 King St. W. Sixo (which is a zoning amendment / official plan amendment – no site plan yet 20 Breithaupt St. (which is also a zoning amendment / official plan amendment – no site plan yet 64 Margaret Ave. – (3 and 6 storey residential buildings) RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - GtwoK - 12-01-2017 So all of those have been previously known about, except 334 King St W — which must be the new LCBO location. Too bad they aren't at least adding a third floor or something.

Too bad they aren't at least adding a third floor or something. Given that they are repurposing the existing buildings (not quite heritage but still) I'm personally quite OK with this plan. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - rangersfan - 12-01-2017 I would have liked to see the LCBO as part of the transit hub or as part of 345 King St W.

Neither one of those works because they need to move now, not two or five years from now. Of course either one could try to attract the LCBO once their lease at 334 expires.

Seems that list should be at least 12 though.

The Drewlo project isn't there, either. If they plan to go ahead, they'll need to get moving fairly quickly, 15 months is not a lot of time for this, RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - jgsz - 12-02-2017 (12-01-2017, 09:21 PM)tomh009 Wrote: If they aren't under site plan review, they would not be listed.

If they plan to go ahead, they'll need to get moving fairly quickly, 15 months is not a lot of time for this, Drewlo definitely wants the building plans in before the deadline. If not they will have to pay 6.6 million in fees. From the Record: Quote:The extra fees are so significant, they could mean the difference between a project going ahead or not, said Allan Drewlo, vice-president of Drewlo Holdings. His downtown project will build about 450 rental apartments, so it would face almost $6.6 million in regional and city development charges if it misses the deadline. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 12-02-2017 Funny to think that the just-announced Manulife project could proceed before Drewlo's, which has been around in one form or another for years now. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - KevinL - 12-02-2017 I gt the sense Manulife had been working on theirs awhile, just out of public view.

Manulife has engaged an external firm to run the project so that may be getting higher priority. We don't know what else Drewlo has in the works, in the region or elsewhere. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Spokes - 12-03-2017 And especially given that while we've known about a potential project here for some years, Drewlo has only recently been the owner of the land |
