It's a nice looking space inside. Hardwood floors, exposed brick and new HVAC. Odd that it has sat for so long.
I believe the building permit that was posted years ago said something about new apartments upstairs too.
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - white_brian - 11-20-2019
At one point it looked to have been leased as there was stuff going from a moving company and a month later it was empty again...
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - white_brian - 11-22-2019
The house at the Corner of King E and Stirling has been demolished
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Bjays93 - 11-22-2019
Was driving down highway 8 today and it looked like the motel around king and fairway was being gutted. Any known plans for this site?
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 11-22-2019
Which one? The Fairway Inn? That would be a happy day.

It appeared that the upper level was just the original walls. Could see right through the structure
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 11-22-2019
Ongoing renovations at the Sunbridge Hotel (formerly Holiday Inn) I imagine.

"North-west" corner? When was the fire?

RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 11-23-2019
Nice spot for a modest commercial or residential (triplex?) upgrade at some point. Hopefully not an extension of the medical building beside it - that parking lot out front is too suburban for that location.
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - ac3r - 11-30-2019
Not a rumour but a quick question. Does anyone happen to remember if the UW School of Pharmacy building was intended to have a phase two? I vaguely recall plans for an additional building (3-6 floors perhaps) but I can't recall. If so, why was it cancelled? Unless it's still planned for the future...
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - panamaniac - 11-30-2019
That does sound vaguely familiar, although I thought it was just future expansion, not necessarily related to the School of Pharmacy.
RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Acitta - 11-30-2019
Maybe you are thinking of the McMaster University's Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine Waterloo Regional Campus building which was built next to it.
