The townhouse complex is very convenient for Grand River Transit bus users. Both the #3 Ottawa South bus on Ottawa Street that heads to the downtown Kitchener Bus Terminal and the #12 Conestoga Mall to Fairview Park Mall bus on Westmount Road that comes from the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University stop directly in front of the complex. The bus ride to UW is about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic - see http://goo.gl/maps/7vIBX details.
Across Ottawa Street is a plaza with the very popular Mel's Diner that is open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, as well as Little Short Stop and M&M Meat Shops, along with Pure Hair Studio, which is a great place to have your hair done. Across Westmount Road is another plaza with Tim Hortons, Dollarama, Freshco, Dairy Queen, Subway and much more!
