General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours

Yes, but ... you really can live in under 400 sqft, if it's laid out well. Even two people can be happy there (of course, each person has different needs so this is not for everyone). But modern 1BR layouts aren't super efficient. Here is an example of two 390 sqft apartments (in Europe), one from 10 years ago, the other one 66 years ago. The old one has lots of doors but is actually much more functional than the current example.
