  KITCHENER -- Residents at A Better Tent City need to find a new home following the sale of former event space Lot42. The property closed last year due to the pandemic and opened its doors for dozens of people without homes. Volunteers with A Better Tent City said they knew there was a chance they'd have to leave once the property was sold. They have until the end of June to find a new location. The real estate broker for the sale wouldn't disclose the purchase price of the property, only confirming that it had been sold. It was listed for $20 million.
