    Great to see some density in the suburbs!

    Prices look low, looking forward to seeing a price list

    At first glance this project looks pretty cool, the render of the building looks pretty good as well. I could not find pricing information on their websiite. Was this just announced? This has been added to the KW developments map.

    Yesterday was the first marketing I'd seen so I'd say it's fairly new (although that doesn't mean it couldn't have been announced for a little while).

    The right hand side of this building looks pretty cool, with the two glass walls. The front looks like its a lot of small windows. At least it looks like they're using decent building materials.

    Is this in the middle of the forest? It looks that way from the aerial photo...

    Well needless to say they'll be clearing a lot of space. I wonder if its right in the middle, where the map shows, or if it'll be closer to one of those already cleared spots (by Strasbourg or Country Hill)

    This development is by Options for Homes (who also did The Village at Brighton Park and the nearby Strasburg Forest Garden Villas), so it's not your typical market condo. On the 2009 Region of Waterloo aerials you can see where their Strasburg Forest Garden Villas is (45 Cedar Hill Cres) on the south side of the woodlot. I believe this site is between the gas station and the park boundary (check the Region of Waterloo GIS to see the property lines)

    The only negative to this project for me so far is that they may have to clear substanial woodlands to develop.But other than that I think this seems like a pretty solid development.

    Ya it's not ideal, but Block Line and Strasbourg are both major roads, and development/intensification of them in my opinion is needed, even at the expense of woodland. Id rather see woodland cleared here than further out near the boundaries of the city in favour of a new suburban community

    Damn it! I used to play in that woodlot as a child. I was upset when the first rental building went in at the corner of Block Line and Country Hill Drive, and it looks like this will result in an even larger swath of property being cleared.

    At least it looks like a reasonably nice design, but i'm definitely not happy.

    Anybody heading out that way today? If so please grab a price list & photos, as I don't think I'll be able to make the grand opening.

    I'll grab some pictures next time I'm out that way. I live about a 2 minute walk away.

    Some pictures from the soon-to-be Tanglewood site. I also found some ground water monitoring wells in the woods right near where the condos are going to be built.

    I like this project, I just wish it was built around the woodlot, not through it. I am all for urbanizing the city, but natural areas take many years to develop, it just seems wasteful when there are other sites that could be developed without destroying a woodlot. I am done complaining now haha. I have yet to make a stop at the sales office for this.
