This project now has a name: Amber & Oak. 45 Rental suites at 70 Short St, Waterloo. Brought to you by Spurline Developments. Units range from 338 sq t (Studio) to 794 sq ft (1 Bedroom + den)
Yikes those floor plans are tiny! To be fair they call them “purposefully crafted” in the brochure, but they omit saying the purpose is to maximize profit, not liveability.
