Strata | 16 & 22 fl | Proposed
#94
Is KW really so small that they can't have two places with somewhat overlapping goals? Inevitably, they will each find a niche so as to be complementary.

Also, the way they complain about the tower development itself:

Quote:they also fear its size and scale is a poor fit for the area and will have a "negative and lasting impact on the uptown core."
...
Their letter also went on to question the amount of parking available near the Waterloo site, and said it "would appear to be a continuation of the student housing towers lining King Street."

Reads as very typical NIMBY concerns: "too tall", "not enough parking", "wrong tenants".
I wonder if they live nearby?
