General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

I think Lot 42 has been on the market for a few months. I've never heard why they decided to sell it. I'd hope whoever buys it would keep the space because it's a unique venue, but it seems like it's zoned in a way that someone could buy it up and build a factory instead if they wanted.

Would be a great spot for a new sports complex, like, a new Memorial Auditorium. Certainly looks large enough. And...close to the LRT.

God I hope not. Wrong side of the hwy.  Lot 42 is a great venue spot and post covid I see it having a future hosting larger events and conferences . But the location is awful, pretty much impossible to walk or take transit to. There is no potential dining in that area for pre-game/ concert meal and drinks other than chain restaurants. A new sports complex needs to be built either at the current location with new residential and commercial district built around it or it needs to be as close to downtown as possible.
