VIA Rail

In the end, I expect that Metrolinx will sell the station, not develop or renovate it.

The Metrolinx property (about three acres, excluding the regional parking lot) actually spans the tracks so potentially could be developed with either a bridge or a larger floor plate above the tracks.

I don't think Metrolinx owns the property? It's Via's station right?

Correct, Wikipedia says Owned by: VIA Rail  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitchener_station

I can see it becoming a restaurant easily; the open bit at the western end would make a neat covered patio.
