RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Chris - 05-11-2022 I saw crews drilling in the lot between Ziggy's and One Victoria on Monday. Crews were drilling at the former United Taxi this morning. ETA: For the curious, here is the United Taxi listing. https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/24375976/150-victoria-street-n-kitchener RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - cherrypark - 05-11-2022 (05-10-2022, 06:31 PM)Zoo Wrote:(05-08-2022, 08:22 AM)ac3r Wrote: This morning, there's a company doing environmental soil testing behind the Ziggy's building. I suspect we'll hear about a proposal soon enough. Two or three months ago they were also doing testing at the little parking lot across from the old bus terminal on Charles Street. If I recall, someone said that one may be another IN8 project. What a relief.

If I recall, someone said that one may be another IN8 project. Ah, I meant the property on Charles Street, not the Ziggy's location. There was a discussion in a thread on here a couple weeks ago and someone said IN8 owns the former but it was nothing confirmed. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - KaiserWilhelmsBust - 05-11-2022 VanMar bought Ziggys for $14,500,000.

I think that Ziggy doesn't even own it anymore, I think his wife got that place as part of a settlement for divorce... Geeze...

Ziggy started ZM in TO and his wife kept the Kitchener shop. So in hindsight, being forced to move for a widened highway has really paid off. Smart family playing the long game here. RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Rainrider22 - 05-11-2022 I remember the big opposition when they had to move the store from the former Old King Street location RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - cherrypark - 05-11-2022 There is a ZM in Kitchener too, but on Strange St. Which was always confusing to me when I first moved here.

RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lebronj23 - 05-11-2022 I think we have reached the point where we hear of another 40 storey tower coming to Kitchener and nobody bats and eye. That’s 7 over 40 storeys coming down the pipeline RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - KaiserWilhelmsBust - 05-11-2022 (05-11-2022, 06:49 PM)CP42 Wrote:(05-11-2022, 11:30 AM)KaiserWilhelmsBust Wrote: VanMar bought Ziggys for $14,500,000. Heard they're planning 40 stories/500 units $10,250,000 I believe RE: General Urban Kitchener Updates and Rumours - Lebronj23 - 05-12-2022 Proposing a 44 storey multiple dwelling - 26 Charles St West. This is IN8s third location as was discussed earlier in this thread. https://app2.kitchener.ca/appdocs/opendata/AMANDADataSets/Application_Status_Site_Plan.csv I’m not sure how this parcel is zoned so I’m not sure if we will get documents. I guess we can make a thread for this one and 88 Queen when we get some renders? If anyone want to make the threads go for it! |
