    Notes:

    House:
    David Kuntz founded the Spring Brewery (later renamed the L. Kuntz Park Brewery) in 1844. When he undertook one of the many expansions of his company's premises, on property to the south-west of King and William Streets, he moved this one-and-a-half-storey frame house westward by horse team to its present location.

    Historic Building:
    Built circa 1880 by Brewer David Kuntz on property acquired in 1856, from John Hoffman, it became the property of Anna Eckert in 1898 and it remained in her possession until her death. There have subsequently been three owners since 1977. The present owners are Krafa Consultants and Management Inc.
    The house is a good example of a mid to late 19th century merchant's home. The two-storey yellow brick structure shows significant Italianate influences, emphasized in the elaborate roof brackets and the two storey projecting bay, with segmentally arched windows. The door is enhanced by its side-lights with a blind transom, which may be authentic or an early replacement for the glass that would normally be here. The porch retains its original detailing below the roof which is supported by chamfered porch posts. The house makes an interesting comparison to the Kuntz-Labatt house across the street.
    The west facade and the north and south facades, ending at the one storey portion, of this historical Waterloo home received designation as a Heritage Landmark for its historic and architectural value1a

    Historic Building:
    The Kuntz-Labatt's House, which now holds offices and meeting rooms for the adjacent Edward R. Good Funeral Home, was built in the mid 1880s.
    The brewery with which the home has long been associated was begun by David Kuntz in 1844. The oldest portions of the business date from 1864. By 1910, the Kuntz Brewery had grown to become Ontario's second largest brewery. Although the enterprise was sold to Carling's in 1929, the Kuntz name was retained until 1940. Colonel Hugh J. Heasley, Manager of Carling's lived in the home from 1944 until his death in 1978. The brewery was demolished in 1993.
    Three impressive homes were built by Kuntz for family members on this site. The designated building is the only one remaining. All had similar important architectural features. Although early renovations have somewhat changed the structure, the home achieves a balanced design through the careful placement of windows, doors and Italianate features such as the paired brackets and round-headed windows in the gable. The verandahs, each supported by slender columns, are typical of late nineteenth century architecture.
    The Kuntz-Labatt's house is both historically significant and architecturally attractive. For these reasons, the entire exterior was noted in the designation.1a
