Prominent corner lot at Albert Street and Hickory Street offering exceptional exposure, dual frontage, and flexible site access-ideal for future intensification. Strategically located along the Albert Street corridor, a key growth area experiencing rapid transition from low-density housing to mid- and high-rise residential developments, driven by proximity to the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University.
