I tried to fix the fridge there and made it a bit better by replacing some foam. But, hey, I was just housesitting... he did replace the fridge for the new tenant though. We will keep that in mind next time we need a new fridge!

Todays market is insane, but how much can you ask for something like this? It's a condo -- how much would a unit sale for? I also wonder how much condo fees would be. Not that I am interested, I am simply curious.

Maybe $800-900/sqft? Condo fees should be in the normal range, I'd say 0.45-0.50/sqft.

So if they're 300 sf, x $800, that's $240,000 Plus condo fees (maybe $200 or so?). My friend's condo is close to $600/month, though it's 3-bedroom.

Right, that makes sense. I am quite sure they have been lived in for the past few years, but it does look like demolition is imminent now. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lebronj23 - 02-23-2022 If the nimbys don’t like the 19 storey proposal at 22 Weber than they aren’t going to like this 27 storey proposal directly across the street at 149 Onatario st N ‘Proposing a 27 storey mixed-use building that includes commercial on the ground floor office use in the third floor and residential from floors 4-26. The 27th floor is proposed to contain shared amenity space both indoor and outdoors in a rooftop terrace. ‘ I think this a revision of that old ugly proposed building that wrapped around the heritage house. Hopefully this one is more appealing. No renders yet.

Unless that enormous concrete wall on the RBC building has been exposed long enough to be a heritage element at this point.

Nice to see it's gained some height back. The renders that were on realtor.ca with the glass podium never made it to WRC, but they looked pretty good. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 02-23-2022 Don’t I recall the City rejecting the height of the earlier proposal? Still a no-parking building, I assume? RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - cherrypark - 02-27-2022 Shot from the new (under construction) MUT today taking in the building progress other side of the rail line. Will be a whole different city-scape from here once the rest of Station Park goes up and probably one of the best downtown panoramas once all the development fills in. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Joedelay Highhoe - 02-28-2022 What's a MUT? Is that Google's new parking garage?

After a quick drive by it looked like the exterior work is complete and they just need to stock the shelves and get some gas delivered.
