General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours

[urbd]

I suspect that's why Le Shin Swah closed. I heard the property was sold to a developer, but not who.

Nope. The VanMar project will be at the opposite corner: the house with the cool overhang (which is boarded up), Gina's hair salon, and the property behind. Gina's owned all of those properties and appears to have sold them to VanMar. Gina's is actually a real estate company now, they are assembling land in other parts of Uptown as well. Very smart move on their part.
