Waterloo Township Through Two Centuries by Elizabeth Bloomfield

By 1955 the effects of modernization and urbanization were beginning to show in Centreville. The new Howard Robertson school for School Section 5 was opened in December 1953, a prime feature of its location on Morgan Avenue being “its remoteness from highway traffic.”195 The old school site was sold for $16,000 to Michael and John Lauer who developed it as a restaurant, the Village Inn.196 General population growth and expanded services in the township created new administrative demands and new offices for Waterloo Township were opened in 1954 on Parkway Drive. The original 1868 building was moved away to serve as the Holy Trinity Anglican Church, and Harold S. Westbrook bought its site for the Centre Villa Motel in 1955
