General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[tomh009]

Lol...I was impressed, multi-residential buildings here all have storage rooms. And they are quite a bit better and more accessible than the storage locker we had in our apartment in Canada (they even have matching keyed locks, where most storage lockers in Canada have a pad lock). Many people do store bikes in them.

As for bike storage, I did see one common bike room, but often people just store their bikes outside the building when they don't use their storage room.

In Finland, basically all apartments/condos have storage lockers (yes, with locks that work with your usual key), typically around 1x2m. I have never seen anyone storing bicycles in those, though, usually they are either in the common bike room (requires the key, again), locked outside or in one's own apartment.

In our condo building here in Kitchener, fewer than half the units have storage lockers, and even then those lockers are quite small, about 1x1m.
