Forceps, pincers, tongs.
I am just not sure if it Latin.
It would have to come from the Latin "tenere" (to hold). New one to me.

Apparently to the official scrabble dictionary too!

I'm a little surprised we haven't seen more action on this. I would have thought something of this size and scope would want to hit the ground running

No surprise there. Given the height and density. But with it's location and proximity to an ION stop, seems like a no brainer to me.

I bet Gazzola votes it down though.....

I wonder if Gazzola ever votes for future changes?

That man doesn't have much vision, except not changing things and trying to be cheap on everything.

I know it was unrealistic of me, but I was really hoping to have a visionary council from top to bottom this term. (most of them are though)

Not sure how accurate this information is but according to this link (information is mostly the same for all four buildings):
The construction start date says 2019, end date 2022
Architect: IBI Group
Structural Engineering: Reinders + Rieder Ltd
According to this link:
Brodie and Associates will be the landscape architects

Nice find and awesome site! It says "planned" -- "approved" so I am guessing it is accurate. For "The Metz" it says "planned" -- "proposed" so there is a different.
Also, it defined what a skyscraper is......100 meters or more. DTK and Charlie are skyscrapers. Virerra (3 of the towers) and The Metz (2 of the towers) will be skyscrapers too.
By no means a lot of skyscrapers, but it's a start.

Hmm. Looking at Kitchener's GIS system, the land is still zoned as industrial. And no permits shown.
