A lost opportunity for me would have been to move the old Ontario Table and Chair factory (now the site of 144 Park) to Doon Heritage Village and possibly incorporating it into the new Waterloo Region Museum as a gateway to the Village. It was from the same time period that the Village depicts (ie 1914) was of the right scale to not dominate anything already there or be too difficult to move, even if it were brick-by-brick. With the right co-operation with places like Conestoga College or other local Masons, it would have been a perfect marriage of old and new.
