I hope the new sidewalk and cycling lane aren't damaged or destroyed during construction.
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.

Any updates on this one?
As I commented on the Galt Post Office thread, I wish this project would've been a new Waterloo Public Library space. This would allow for the Albert Street branch to be closed and redeveloped. Would this project be too small for a WPL?

While conceptually I love the idea of WPL in an old landmark building on King St., a quick glance at Google Maps shows that this particular idea (in particular, I note that you propose closing the Albert St. building, so this is a replacement) does not work. The entire property on King, including the adjacent currently-vacant lot, has about half the horizontal space of the existing library building. So unless you’re proposing a 3-story building right to the property line, the 3-dimensional space is simply not available at this location. Even more floors would be required if the idea is to expand the library.

Walking through uptown last night I noticed that hoarding is now up around both properties, and there's a sign up with renders and logos. Is this new? I don't remember seeing it last time I was in uptown, but it's been a while since I walked along this part of King St.

Isn't the new Strata development supposed to go where the old post office is?

This is the original post office (or the post office before the one on King and Bridgeport). Yes boarding is new. The project was on hold for a while, but they will finally be starting some construction on this infill project.

Are they building into that empty lot too?
