RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - BuildingScout - 02-03-2015 Frankly I would have much preferred office space than Dollarama, but that's just me and yes, I do shop in Dollarama from time to time. So as they say, careful what you wish for. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Markster - 02-03-2015 Yeah... that was not an upgrade. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - TMKM94 - 02-03-2015 I knew it. I would have preferred Dollarama open in Market square or the eaton lofts building but at least that space is remaining retail. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Spokes - 02-04-2015 Lateral move. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 02-04-2015 Teaches me not to listen to rumours from Downtown merchants - I would have preferred Giant Tiger to Dollarama, but at least the space will be cleaned up. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - clasher - 02-04-2015 Giant Tiger at least sells better food than most dollaramas, but it's been a while since I've been in a dollarama. Access to cheap food is a big deal to people living downtown. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - BuildingScout - 02-04-2015 Dollarama doesn't really sell food. Mostly chips and some really low quality canned goods. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Markster - 02-04-2015 Yeah, I occasionally made use of TBS' grocery section. It's unlikely Dollarama will be providing a similarly sized replacement. Though, it's been a while since I've visited a large-format Dollarama, so maybe their bigger ones are at least comparable to TBS? RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lens - 02-04-2015 Revel is in a little hot water http://www.therecord.com/news-story/5322462-developer-ordered-to-remove-paint-from-heritage-building/. They also have their "Royal" and "Wales" apartment buildings on the market. I'm finding their recent behavior to be a little questionable...

I bet they didn't know about the heritage designation just as much as Uber doesn't know about the taxi regulations it flouts.

RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lens - 02-05-2015 Fair point. Look for Giananquita to move down to TAYA's old spot sometime soon. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - TMKM94 - 02-05-2015 Why would they paint the brick, I hope it's not to late to have it cleaned off. IMO they should paint most of the cream painted areas black. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - DHLawrence - 02-05-2015 It's being cleaned off on their dime. I agree, brick like that is visually interesting enough to be left as it is, regardless of heritage concerns.

I wonder if these properties will attract interest from developers. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lens - 02-17-2015 It looks like Coupal Markou has assembled a large section of land in King East, near Ottawa. This site has a lot of potential, especially being right next to an LRT stop. http://www.coupalmarkou.com/features/Kitchener/KingStEast_1015-1051sale.pdf |
