General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[Acitta]

There are about two dozen coffee shops in DTK, most of them within a block or two of an LRT station. As well as lots of restaurants. What, exactly, are you looking to hop off for?

I am heading south, so it needs to be at Kitchener, Market, Borden, Mill, Block Line or Fairway stations, and, like the example given, it needs to be right there to hop off and then get right bak on the next train. Two blocks away is too far.

Nova Era is a block from Market Station. It opens at 7:30. There are current developments on King St. near Market Station. Maybe you will see a coffee shop in one of them. There is a large condo development beside Block Line Station in the planning stages. I don't know if it will include any commercial units at street level. That is years down the line, though. The Schneider's redevelopment is supposed to include some commercial stuff in the existing buildings, but again, that is years down the line and maybe a bit of a longer walk from Mill Stn. than you want. There is also the redevelopment of the Fairview Mall property which is supposed to include the parking lot next to the ION station, and also years down the line. Buy yourself an insulated cup and make your coffee at home.
