Unfortunately times are going to be tough for Conestoga college for the next couple years. can see them doing any major investments in campuses for the time being.
The 22 Frederick renovations are turning out to be a bit of a disappointment. Looks like they are using cheap materials and not actually changing the look of the exterior. I was hoping they would reclad the building similar to the second floor event space attached to the building or similar style to the market square campus entrance off duke/ Frederick.
It's odd, because I think the college did a decent job renovating the waterloo campus, but the DTK campus seems to be use as little money as possible so the board can get fat pay cheques.
As far as I know the Waterloo campus actually hosts real courses, and the downtown campus was pretty much exclusively for the programs that serve no purpose other than taking advantage of international students and/or facilitating what is basically immigration fraud.
I suspect the college knew what they were doing and planned accordingly.
