-In high school we walked to that exact KFC for lunch and would discuss the previous nights antics playing StarCraft broodwar.
-I used to fix computers (professionally) at a store on the same street as that gas station as an after high school job
-In Dec/jan 2010 I worked 18 hours a day laying floors in the new RIM buildings at Philip/Colombia. A friend’s dad did a lot of the furniture moving. Both of us made over $4000 a week in our early 20s
-Now out of those 4 buildings I think black berry only has two floors of one building
-Waterloo has seen serious decline since the death of RIM
-Not sure it will ever come back, most people including myself left years ago.
-there has been a serious condo tower boom, but that sucks for “walkability” and it’s radically changed the area
-if you attended university in Waterloo in the 2000s and lived off campus, wherever you lived is likely gone and there is a condo tower there now.
