The best source of information about the project is the live web page where this document was retrieved: https://civichubwr.org/a-better-tent-city/
The file creation date of the `LiVinci-Final-Presentation-1.pdf` document that identifies both sites is April 6.
The Civic Hub page describing the project links to the LiVinci document as well as another, https://civichubwr.org/wp-content/upload...tion-1.pdf, which includes the date April 6 in the document itself. Both these documents were proposals from UW planning students.
Unfortunately, the page itself had not been captured by the Internet Archive before today, so it's tricky to compare historical details.
It seems very likely that both locations were considered, and provided to the Waterloo Planning students. Lot42 is where the current effort is focused though. The 1001 King St. East location may well be considered in the future, but the project at present seems to be very focused on Lot42.
I believe that it is most likely the case that these two documents were the basis for early discussion and consideration, and the final decision landed with Lot42, if only because the owner of the property is a very strong advocate for the project. They are historic documents now though.
