Photoset taken today during an evening walk downtown.
Find other photos in my post here.
Upper window wall has been slow on this one, but it seems to be almost done officially. With DTK and Charlie taking occupancy within the coming months it will be interesting to see the effects it has on how busy the surround areas become.
Now being more complete, I'd say the building feels inoffensive overall (excluding the podium), though suffers from both lackluster materials and an inexperienced architecture firm, it reads like something from RAW Design, meaning too many ideas at once. (common in the projects across the region).
The parking lot on Queen this photo is taken from would be another great spot for a tower.
The first time I've been around Victoria Park with an event actually happening since Pre-covid. Always a reminder that the field makes a great large scale event space with an emerging skyline view.
DTK in peaking out in the back.
Speaking on Victoria Park, a lot of Downtown Kitchener's housing is actually located in the neighborhood adjacent to the park (right hand side of photo). There's many smaller scale projects in that area that I don't want to spam with new threads but I would like to make note of them.
In this picture:
Yellow Crane is for OTIS by Vive Developments (Condo, 6 Stories)
Black Crane is for 242 Queen by Vive Developments (Rental, 10 stories)
The yellow building peaking out behind the yellow crane is Arrow II by Auburn Developments (Condo, 16 Stories)
Back on to DTK Condos, only two years ago this view was rather barren, with a few proposals upcoming, that will be far from the case soon.
DTK poking up behind Young Condos. Also funny that SRM Architects has there office visible here, the one's who designed it.
UT members have a new low to contend with while complaining
