They did a reno and it looks good now, but retail is almost extinct in there. It's down to restaurants and neighbourhood strip-mall type services. The mid-90s reno actually brought in retailers... I'm pretty sure they had Winnipeg's first Eddie Bauer store in there, and possibly other first-to-market stores.

I agree that Portage Place is at a point where it is in need of an overhaul. In particular the food court, it's really getting run down.
