    Kit at Kensington | 50m | 15s | Jemm Properties | LOLA

    Yes, there is an existing level of underground parking there. Protip, it's barely used so the go-to if you are driving for groceries. I would guess in a redevelopment they'd tear it all out and dig again, 2 floors could be good in that case. That apartment building on the NW corner does have...
