If you have time, Waterloo has a survey open right now, taking feedback on how to tackle housing affordability.

Strata has been on hold for a long time… I do still see the advertisements on various realtor sites and websites. I hope this is coming back to life but I highly doubt it at the moment

I wouldn't put any faith in what a realtor says. This project seems to be stalled like most others in Waterloo, with the exception of anything in the student ghetto.

Does anyone know why it is on hold ?

Hope it was on hold for a total redesign as that thing is UG-Lee.

Look, every metro needs its ghetto....ours happens to be between on King St between Ezra and Columbia. BTW: I was driving up that way today, and noticed the facade on some of the newer builds fading badly, especially the one on King and Columbia, it looks like dog crap.

I had to drive past there a few weeks ago, That was exactly what I noticed too. I meant to go back and get a picture and post it here. It is going to be bad.

Choose your fighter.
Stay classy, Waterloo.
It's incredible how the University of Waterloo has one of the most prestigious architecture faculties in the world, where they send students off to Trastevere, Rome to study under some of the greatest living architects on the planet with links to some of the greatest architectural faculties from New York City to Abruzzo...and yet, the best the city itself can produce (and approve) is this sort of garbage landfill refuse rubbish trash shit that deserves to be imploded with TNT. There are better looking Khrushchoba buildings in the shittiest cities in Russia that look better than the garbage Waterloo manages to produce.

I used to work in the King & University area up until 2014 or so, so I saw some of this growth, which really exploded these last few years. There used to be nice houses from Ezra to Columbia. It's OK they were replaced. It's King St, and it should be dense. But it is disappointing that it turned out to be mostly, if not all, student housing, and low quality build to go along with it. But it is shocking that these buildings are deteriorating as quickly as they are. But also shocking that these building were approved in the first place. I guess Waterloo saw all this development money coming in, maybe to help pay off the RIM fiasco. |
