General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours
Spotted these NIMBY signs around downtown, just off one of the side streets near the library:

The "unlimited height" claim is rich. Worded that way, you'd think the developers are wanting to build a 68 floor skyscraper. I hope this gets built and these people don't manage to stop it. If I remember right, it was going to be rental units which are in desperate need, though maybe it's condos, I can't remember. Either way, we need more housing ASAP. These privilegey NIMBYs need to understand that. There's already two 18 floor towers right nearby as well, which are in fact even closer to the existing single family homes. 22 Weber West would be on a dumpy parking lot next to a church and some business. There would be no loss of heritage as their website claims.
