General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[ac3r]

The entire block sans the 2 houses are owned by BentallGreenOak which is the Sun Life real estate investment firm, one of the largest on the continent. They primarily develop malls and office and/or residential towers around the world.

I didn’t realize those still had separate ownership. I always assumed SunLife just hadn’t wanted the space yet.

Incidentally, do you happen to know if Mutual Dr. is still an actual city street? Google Maps shows it as such, but it seems weird for SunLife not to have taken ownership since it has no use whatsoever other than providing access to their parking lot and it is laid out like part of a parking lot, not like a street.

It's not an actual street. Was it ever one? I'm unsure but many someone knows. If you pull it up on the City of Kitchener OnPoint Map Viewer there is no indication of it being a street, just 1 major parcel of property (again with the exception of the 2 houses). There isn't any signage that says Mututal Drive, just some new signs that show the address and lights to indicate how full the lot is.
