General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[Square]

Vogelsang Green like I've never seen it before.  I was surprised at the amount of soil they removed today.

Is there a timeline for the Vogelsang Green/Queen St changes? I feel like I saw it somewhere, but not sure where.

That is disappointing as it is the one coffee shop I have most often used. However, I am sure the location will attract something good.

There are a lot of coffee shops in the area and Coffee Culture had one of the worst product selections IMO (not that it was bad), so I'm not too surprised. I did like the atmosphere of the place though. I'd certainly rather have it over Tim Hortons, but people have their habits I guess.

Speaking of coffee shops, does anyone know what's happening with Williams? I seems inaccessible from the street with the Carl Zehr square construction, is presumably shut down from COVID, and has a ton of competition now. Gone for good?
