General Suburban Updates and Rumours

[timc]

I can't recall what was proposed that set things off, but i actually have some sympathy for the large lot owners in that bit of Colonial Acres.  Re the other opposition to towers, I wonder what alternative there is for Waterloo but to grow upwards/more dense?  Isn't the City almost out of development lands?

It may be related to the changes that were proposed and rejected at Bridge and Lexington. Building townhouses at an intersection of two arterial roads was too much, apparently.

Yes, I believe that all available greenfield land in Waterloo has been spoken for, and the last bits in the northwest corner are being developed.
