I wish the NIMBY groups would acknowledge this. Kitchener and Waterloo are not small cities anymore, relative to the size of Canada/Ontario. If they want the small town feel, move out to Cambridge or something. KW is certainly not a major metropolis, but this is a big city. There seems to be a disconnect here. Maybe it's because, if you go back to 2000, there was virtually no development in the core of either cities. So the sudden boom in growth is something to adjust to.
Anyway, this tower is nice, and I do hope it gets built. The more density here, the better in the long term.
