I wonder what kind of shops will move in there. Seems like half the time it's just restaurants (which is fine) but little else moves in downtown Kitchener. Very few or outright no clothing stores, shoe shoes, art stores, entertainment places, unique shops, computer stores, gift stores, hobby stores etc. You can take 3-4 blocks of any generic neighbourhood in the Toronto core and find more interesting stuff there than all of our downtown. Here it's usually just restaurants, banks, realtors, weed shops and other generic stuff. There's still very little to bring people from the suburbs downtown unless they're eating out or going to a one off event at like...a bar or to watch a band.
