Construction underway on many projects at University of Waterloo

We just looked at the growth plans that University of Waterloo has over the next 40 years (Is Waterloo’s Student Housing Market Being Over Built?) - they plan to double the footprint of the campus, adding potentially more than 10,000 new staff to the Unviersity (to accomodate increased enrollment) over the next few decades:

On Monday, Waterloo councillors approved conceptual plans to expand the research and technology park north of the current campus, and also to develop nearby vacant lands in the northwest corner of the campus.

Council also reviewed a university proposal to launch construction of a first phase in its northwest corner. The lands could be used for research, academic buildings, and housing for students or faculty.

“It’s pretty much doubling the size of the university footprint,” Coun. Mark Whaley said. “It’s remarkable stuff.” (originally from The Record)

I was close to UW’s campus this morning, and I had the opportunity to snap a few pictures of the development projects underway on campus.

Here is a sampling:
