This was one of the town squares in the City of Waterloo. At one point, the town square was at King/Erb (now site of the Bank of Montreal), then it shifted a little further west in front of the old Town Hall (now site of the Marsland Centre). There was some land purchasing of Heritage Green for the LRT with the Region assuming responsibility to fix things later. The following is from September 2014 (PDF) and includes the various bits that Region purchased from the City of Waterloo including part of Heritage Green:
