Suburban Updates

[cc85]

there may be a little addition coming to central city

[Volksboi]

and what would that be?

[98fb]

yes can you please enlighten us. We need some discussion here.

[officedweller]

Would that be attached to the mall or across the street on the bus loop?

[SpongeG]

i was there tonight looks like H&M, Liz Claiborne and Bed Bath & Beyond are opening...

but its just done in a teasing way... but looks official

[Volksboi]

H&M opening in central City? where did you see this?

[David]

i saw what he is referring to. there is an empty storefront near future shop/winners with central city ads on the boards in front. there are three ads on it, with images of people saying something like: "a new store at central city? gee.. i hope it is _____" and then the three ads say H&M, Aldo and Liz Claiborne. It is really deceiving. I would think the mall wouldn't be allowed to advertise with those stores logos unless they were actually opening there, but the storefront seems way too small to have enough room for those three stores.

2.5 words: "two-storey addition"

[officedweller]

The Central City website shows "Future Development" near Winners - don't know if that space is already occupied or if it's the space you guys are referring to.

[Volksboi]

ohh come on you need to give us more then that...lol...

the space i was referring to is the left-most space of the "22" block

[SpongeG]

yeah thats where the ad is

its obviously too small for Bed Bath & Beyond

I imagine there is room for them somewhere in the mall - it has a number of vacancies and that whole Future Development Area

It could be a small H&M - the kind that only sells the womens stuff

or liz claiborne

would be nice to see it back as a better mall again - once it lost the bay and sears it died and has done a really good job coming back the last 2 years - ever since T&T opened it has really picked up pace

would be nice to see some big chains like H&M make it home

Interesting that the Brick is shown on that mall map. I didnt know they moved from their previous location at 135th & 104. That must have been very recent. Could mean re-development comming soon for that site.

See the building below the "W" in Waite, and the parking lot next to it.

[SpongeG]

yeah the brick closed down in september or october i think it was

they had a big close out sale

a prime spot for something for sure maybe one big project or something that helps with some needed infill

[SpongeG]

that condo whose name is escaping my dead memory at holdom station in Burnaby has added a train sculpture to its plaza between it and the holdom station

i hope its part of the water fountain as it kinda looks cheap but better than nothing i guess

Legacy.

[SpongeG]

ah right

Was at Central City again tonight and they have taken down the H&M thing - now it only says Liz Claiborne and bed beath and beyond...

[cc85]

they must be on to us.

[SpongeG]

that park is getting close to done
