35 King St N, Waterloo (Old, old Post Office)
#3
I'm worried about this destroying the St Jacobs feel of uptown Waterloo.

The heritage of King Street in uptown Waterloo is short, brick buildings, many of them factories. Plopping an glass box in the middle of it is going to be disruptive.

I understand that the empty site is no gem, but it is not obtrusive in any way. It is just kind of there.

This building could be a pivotal moment in deciding whether we want to "preserve heritage" or have a vision for the future.
