$24-million facelift coming for Waterloo’s Northdale

Waterloo’s Northdale neighbourhood is getting a multi-million dollar facelift.

City council has voted in favour of a $24-million streetscape project for the area.

It follows the city’s approval of the Northdale land use and community improvement plan four years ago which aims to transition the neighbourhood into a mixed-use, higher density area.

Northdale covers the area bordered by Columbia Street, King Street North, University Avenue West and Phillip Street.

A list of priorities is now being developed with the first work expected to begin next year.

The end goal is to make Northdale a vibrant neighbourhood with more attractive streets and public spaces.

That could include new trails with better lighting.
