Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment
I already shared i think it needs to be a mix of loads of things.

I am okay with an arena/premier sports AND entertainment venue but I think if we are doing the office and condos, we should take inspiration from The Well, Distillery District and Celebration Square.

I put more details in an earlier post. To build on that we could have a nice community space, RecRoom type all ages gaming business, plenty of restos with patios, something like planetarium and a larger Museum space and have clear linkages to the park and Immovation area as well as to King Street proper all whilst still paying homage to our roots and community members at large.


Then we need a Board for the Planetarium and Museum that goes hard and bringing the best and sought after exhibits to town. Selfishly perhaps, like Chicago, it should be FREE or heavily subsidized for Waterloo Region residents.

Just some thoughts.

Have a vision, spend the bux, and make Kitchener Waterloo a top 4 destination to live, play, work and visit in all of Canada (behind Toronto, Vancouver and say Montreal, as these are hard to top)
