Come out to the #KitchenerMarket today and let’s talk about our proposed downtown zoning using our made-in-house 3D model. We’ll help you identify your favourite spots and explain how we are #GrowingTogether
Our agreement with the @CityKitchener is going to help create 1,200 homes in the next 3 years and 37,500 homes over the next 10. City by city we are cutting red tape, and getting more homes built, faster for Canadians.
Tomorrow night, I'll be the MC at Kitchener's Great Places Awards! It's not too late to get your tickets and celebrate the amazing development projects that define Kitchener's neighbourhoods and make our city great!!
