Thanks!
Not the most beautiful condo rendering I have seen, but still a huge improvement over what's there today.

I'd like to see a rendering from the rear, but it does look good!

From the article: "The developer is proposing putting in a one-storey parking garage along the railway tracks, with a couple of storefronts facing Queen Street."
Nice to see some shop space here.

I like the podium, but I'm not a fan of the "random" window schemes on towers.

Looks like it, but I suspect they [did not] have many options. I think it probably can't go beside the rail line for regulatory reasons (they already plan for an engineered crash wall on that side in lieu of a berm/setback). Right beside the IHT seems awkward to me due to the lot's wedge shape.

You're probably right EdM. Logical location given those restrictions.

Slightly different perspective in the Kitchener Post:
Post article is
here.
The Record article mentions public comment are welcome until July 26th and the Post article mentions how to appear as a delegation, but where are the full details posted to have an informed opinion?
Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
