Work has begun on the second tower while the first building has topped out at 12 floors.

The first tower can be seen from a significant distance, it really looks prominent from fairway Rd. Glad to see they have already started the second.

Parts for another crane are on site, while construction on the 2nd tower is now on the 5th floor.

Does anyone know where we might find a site plan for this project?

UrbanWaterloo · 02-10-2013 12:25 PM

Rents in the first building are from $1,166 - $1,844.

Bland, but I'd still choose it over a commie block.

Drewlo makes good buildings, so they shouldn't have a problem fetching those rates. But the construction state might scare people away in the short term.

That being said, 4 buildings in a row, is a little boring. I wonder if they'll have any common outdoor space.

We lived in the Drewlo apartment on Country Hill Drive. It was the nicest, well-maintained building I ever lived in. Their prices are high, but the fact that they come with all the appliances and each unit has its own furnace and central a/c unit is very appealing. When we lived there, hydro was included so cranking up the a/c in the summer didn't have that extra hit in the pocketbook. I would recommend their apartments to anyone looking.

I'll echo everything that was just said about the Victoria Park Towers on Queen and Courtland.

Does anyone know what the legality of the "Kitchener's First ALL NON-SMOKING building." statement is?

panamaniac · 02-12-2013 11:24 PM

If you mean can a no-smoking provision in a lease be enforced, I suspect that the answer is likely "yes". Both the landlord (assorted direct and indirect costs) and other tenants (enjoyment of their apartments) would suffer damage as a result of violations, which wouldn't be too hard to establish.

bzmwillemsen · 02-15-2013 12:03 PM

I'm thinking that a "no-smoking" provision in a lease would be similar to a 'no pets' provision in a lease.
While you did sign a lease that says 'no pets' there is a provincial law that states that such a provision is not lawful, and is therefore not enforceable.
I'm wondering if a 'no-smoking' provision would succumb to the same circumstance.
