General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours

[jamincan]

In fairness, the Spur Line runs behind the building, so there's no big surprise you can't see it. For those unfamiliar with the location, it is at the junction of the Spur Line and Laurel Trail; it's next to impossible for it to not have good access to both of them. I would guess the rebranding is perhaps an attempt to make more people aware of the link. It isn't actually far from Uptown at all, particularly via the trail. The Erb-spressway kind of makes that avenue seem much farther than it actually is, while the Spur Line is somewhat pleasant (even if it is largely adjacent to parking lots).

The rebranding actually makes a fair bit of sense. It's currently the Erb Professional Centre, and while it still does have some doctor's offices and what not, it seems to have broadened out a bit. There are a number of active-lifestyle type stores there now as well, which kind of suits the location.
