Surplus & Former School Properties
As the demographics of neighbourhoods change, existing schools can face declining enrollment and face the decision of closure. Former school sites can offer excellent redevelopment and intensification opportunities, as seen with the Alexandra School Lofts in Waterloo and the Victoria School in Kitchener.
This thread is to document and discuss school sites that have been declared surplus. If a redevelopment is proposed, a new and individual development thread can be created.
