General Urban Waterloo Updates and Rumours
It's probably a bit less than a kilometre to GRH, especially if there is eventual access from the site to the Spur Line Trail. That is walking through the cemetery (I know- online mapping tools don't give that as a walking route, unfortunately), rather than Union all the way to King.

Andy, out of curiosity, from whom do you think resistance would come to a big building here? The occupants of the neighbouring single family homes are already living on a four-lane road with commercial on it- in the case of the homes on the south side, they've been adjacent to parking lots and industrial uses for quite a while.

Anyway, I agree with you that it would be nice to see some intensification on Union. Maybe a twelve storey building is not so far-fetched.
