Lang Tannery Plan

Lang Tannery Redevelopment

Cadan Inc. - a Toronto development company plans to transform the former Lang Tanning building - located in the west end of downtown directly across the street from the University of Waterloo's new Downtown Kitchener Health Sciences Campus - into a mix of corporate and social space. This redevelopment is a direct result of the City's $30 million investment in the UW School of Pharmacy.

The "Tannery District" will be filled with new restaurants and retail uses, landscaped courtyards, and office space that caters to the emerging technologies, multi media, financial and health sciences industries currently growing in the downtown. Once the developer's $30 million renovation process is complete, the site will feature two buildings. One will offer space for local artisans, while the other will be designed to house new office and retail space. A private courtyard will be situated between the two buildings - with space that's suitable for hosting outdoor festivals as well as leisure activities. Cadman Inc. is taking advantage of the City of Kitchener's downtown financial incentives program and its Brownfield remediation program to support this development.
