Waterloo Region Housing is seeking to expand their social/community housing by proposing a 9 and 16 floor apartment project at 15-105 Mooregate Crescent. The plan and architectural design is done by SvN Architects + Planners, who have a prestigious portfolio which I urge you to check out.

Proposed are two towers. The first would be 9 floors (8 along the northern side) and 16 floors. The units are proposed to range from 1 to 5 bedrooms. Both buildings would contain indoor amenity spaces for the residents and a shared outdoor amenity space. The design incorporates warm colour toned materials to work with a quality of light, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The updated master plan and design allows for a gradual transition of height between the existing neighbouring tall towers and low rise structures surrounding the neighbourhood.
The two towers will replace at least 2 existing townhouse buildings currently occupying the site. The Region of Waterloo anticipates construction beginning in September 2025.
