Yeah, Jacob has to move because its current location is where the Canada Line Station and connection to the mall will be located. The sign said opening Spring 2008 - so expect that's when the plaza in front of Sears will start getting ripped up.
yeah so my friend talked me into going and we will be getting up at 4 am hopefully get to target in time for the rush
was out at Surrey Central tonight - they have a sign on an empty spot that seems to elude to what stores it could be so i imagine all three will be opening or why would they put actual store names with the proper logos and fonts etc??
anyway the three stores which look to open there are
H&M
Bed Bath & Beyond
and
Liz Claiborne
that mall has really turned around
and if the H&M opens soon finally there will be an H&M on the skytrain line!
Hey guys, I can offically confirm that H&M is going into the old Holt Renfrew space in Pacific Center. However what you see there right now is not H&M construction, but demolition of Holt Renfrew's old space by Pacific Center, which was happening regardless of H&M's intentions on the space. H&M just put their construction plans out to tender today so we should see it begin construction right after the holidays in early January, and be ready for occupancy at the beginning of may.
So I was down at the H&M site in Pacific Centre today, and the site supervisor told me that the exterior glazing fronting Granville street should start to go up this week, well before construction of the actual H&M store. The entire facade will be transparent curtain wall, and I would imagine in trying to keep with Pacific Centre's new image of being a high class mall the glass should be of quite high quality, so if you're in the area keep your eye out for that becuase it should look pretty good once it is completed.

Another thread here stated that APPLE was going into that section under renovation, any info to that effect?
ah nice about H&M that mall could use it - oddly close to the other one though
I think Apple or at least what some blog said about it - is that it will open in time for the launch of the Iphone in Canada and it will have an outdoor street entrance as well

Makes sense - that means it will be in the upper mall - probably would have to be close to Georgia St. (i.e. right where Holt's had it's entrance, before the hill tapers off too much).
its ok - very small - not as nice as the ones i have been to in Seattle - feels a little weird and crowded even though there weren't a lot of people
and than went to the new Pottery Barn - its really nice - the two levels are great - the bottom feels a little smaller now though but there is much more of everything - like a whole towel bath section instead of one little wall
Keep forgetting to mention - @ L'Aria on Robson, H-Mart is expanding into the formerly unleased space at the base of their escalators - so they must be doing well. It also balances the look of the ground floor level whereas before the wall hitting the angled facade looked odd.
I was walking in Gastown today and noticed a lot of new high-end stores have opened or are opening along Cordova, Water and Abbott. Abbott from Water to Cordova is looking great these days! That must be the most improved area of Gastown the last 4 years.
John Fluevog coming to Gastown on Water:
Nika in Gastown on Abbott:
Lamplighter on Abbott getting another overhaul:
Looks like the space inbetween Jules and Lamplighter is also getting a makeover:
