General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours

[tomh009]

That would be good ... but I can't find any prior discussion (other than panamaniac's proposal to do the same, last summer!).

 I am a terrible rumour monger!  It’s just me whipping out my magical development wand ....

So, I did manage to dig up a few tidbits. First, the property is designated as high-density mixed-used in the PARTS plan:

Second, the city staff is indeed proposing to close Delta St and convert it into a bicycle/pedestrian trail, and add some green space. The roadway is 6.6m wide, but there is significant space beyond that (the trees next to the road are on city property, probably at least 20m in width. It could be quite nice, especially if they move the fence a little bit toward the golf course.
