Townhouse development slated for Park and Allen

As construction begins on a 19- storey condo tower at the corner of Park and Allen streets, the intersection is getting a new addition.

A 3.5-storey, 18-unit townhouse development is slated for the northwest corner of Park and Allen.

The site is currently a vacant industrial lot.

The design of the building is new to Waterloo.

It will be a "stacked townhouse," essentially a hybrid of apartments and townhouses.

The style, which is also known as terrace dwelling, is essentially rows of townhouses stacked on top of each other.

This development will feature three rows of townhouses, including basement, main floor and upper floor.

"This will complement the development of 144 Park," said Scott Patterson a consultant with Labreche-Patterson and Associates, at a public meeting earlier this month.

"The terrace dwelling will provide a suitable transition from existing townhouses to the south and higher density to the north."

The development is still seeking approval from the city.
