I don't know exactly what your domain is of course, but:
If you really want to store hard-coded URLs in your model, you're 
probably better of creating them from the "outside", for example by 
expecting the URL as constructor argument.

If you just store the current URL there's no need to use an UriBuilder, 
is there?

But be aware that those links will be broken if your routes change.. I 
think your previous approach of storing the route-values separately is 
actually less error prone.

I'm glad to read that ;)
