Revel Development had a planned project on Lancaster St West and Union St. There are two houses beside Forwell Variety on Lancaster that where to be demolished. I noticed today the Revel sign is down and the property is up for sale. I would say based on that this project is dead.

I should take some pictures. The two houses are all boarded up with a big warning to Keep Out. Looks like something straight out of a slum. Hopefully they demolish the houses soon. Then it can become another weed infested vacant lot.

I'd consider this "Urban Kitchener" as opposed to "Suburbs." It's inside the expressway, anyway, and Lancaster has a mix of uses and doesn't seem especially suburban.
Edit: that's probably pretty moot as it's not likely to be a project anyway.

What had Revel been planning for this site? Seems like a decent location for an affordably priced product.

Isn't that effectively the same as a condominium corporation, just not owner-occupied?

The two houses are gone this morning. I think they were demolished yesterday; I saw a power shovel there last night but assumed it was just part of the Union road work.
