General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours
(06-29-2021, 08:14 AM)Tony_Plow Wrote: I noticed the Erb-Kumpf house at 172 KING Street S in Waterloo has been listed for sale, and the listing touts the site for redevelopment.  Would they have to encase the existing home in glass (or preserve it some other way) in order to do a condo development on this site?

Correction: Neighbouring site was just approved for increased density and height allowances. 

I can imagine that this might be a property where the City holds the new owner to a tight leash. As one of the oldest still standing buildings in the City, I could see that it would be a challenge to propose anything that is not sympathetic.  Another route could be to follow the Campbell House Museum which is in the heart of Toronto, across from Osgoode Hall.
