ION - Waterloo Region's Light Rail Transit
I find it interesting that with Phase 1, there was less worry about taking property, yet by Phase 2, they are worried enough about it to consider drastically altering the route for the sake of avoiding upset property owners.

For instance, I'd count the LRT prep work widening of Weber Street between Waterloo and Kitchener as a pretty drastic taking of property. Likewise, cutting down all the trees in Waterloo Park was also deemed acceptable for the better good of the project. I wonder what buildings, parklands or other significant properties in south Kitchener and Cambridge would be affected.
