Is one allowed to be sceptical about developments that "could" include a supermarket?

As long as the project does not hinge on signing up a supermarket as a tenant, that shouldn't affect its viability. But having a space that is suitable for a supermarket doesn't mean that one will sign up and lease that space.

I was unclear - my scepticism relates to the likelihood of a supermarket, not to the development itself.

I'm confident that we'll get a mainstream (put possibly urban-sized) supermarket downtown. Some day. But whether it's in the next three, six or sixteen years, I really don't know. In the meantime, grocery selection downtown is pretty decent now (SDM, J&P, Legacy Greens, the market, Hasty Market, New City and BT) so I'm not desperate.

Whats the est completion date for this one? That's not on yet (at least not on the second story, which is all I could see from Charles St). But based on the earlier render, the same pale yellow brick used on most LCBO buildings RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 11-22-2018 (11-22-2018, 01:03 AM)GtwoK Wrote:(11-21-2018, 06:44 PM)panamaniac Wrote: What's the exterior cladding of the building? Good. I was concerned it would be yet more grey/black brick or, worse, EIFS.

Hopefully this, rather than the pale yellow EIFS used on some of the LCBO buildings. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Spokes - 11-22-2018 I'm hoping for similar to the Uptown location RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - GtwoK - 11-22-2018 This is the render of which I spoke. Hard to see, but there is a moire pattern that bricks are creating. I could've sworn there were more renders, but I can't find them atm RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - tomh009 - 11-23-2018 (11-21-2018, 06:17 PM)tomh009 Wrote:(11-21-2018, 04:26 PM)GtwoK Wrote: Windows going in to the new LCBO on King today, lights were on inside too.
