The 8 Retailers That Will Close the Most Stores in 2013.
Read this online today. It's more to do with the American chains but may eventually affect the Canadian counterparts of some of them. http://www.dailyfinance.com/2013/01/...hotoID-5603526 |

Was down on Stavanger Drive this morning. Noticed that all of the Zellers signage is now gone on the building that will soon become Target. I wonder if they will build on to the existing building. It's kinda small for a Target store. Lots of land though on the Kent's side to expand if they want. Look forward to seeing how the building will look when its changed over to Target. |

Here is a link showing what the first Target store in Canada will look like. This is from the store in the Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, ON that is due to open this spring I think.

Water Street Variety, which I've never been into, just reached a deal to become a Bidgoods. So downtown will now have a small grocery store.
|
Where specifically is Water Street Variety?
I work downtown and I have never heard of that place. LOL. Quote:

Yeah I was down that way too and took some pics today. I wonder if they are indeed going to build onto the building?
They also have some construction trailers and lots of fencing around so looks like they may being doing some major renos and stuff before the fall opening. https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.n...02672047_n.jpg Quote:

I was at the Avalon Mall late last week and noticed Please Mum is no longer there. This is the fourth empty space (including The Sony Store, Athletes World, and the new renovated area) at the mall. I hope there will be new and unique stores opening up in these locations.
I also noticed the new Jump+ store will be ready sometime this spring - I think someone may have posted this earlier as well. |

We know that Sony and Athletes world are closing many many stores and are not reflective of their performance in this market can't wait to see what opens |

I hope so too. It'll give the sickening amount of disposable income in this city somewhere to go besides drugs. ;)

The Charlottetown Zellers is 112,000 sq. ft. So you're saying the St. John's location is roughly 220,000 sq ft????? The average Zellers store is 94,000 sq. ft per wikipedia. The Zellers location in Charlottetown has all kinds of room to expand. It is not in the middle of the mall, it is on the backside. If you look behind the mall at the Zellers loading docks you will see all kinds of space. |
Athletes world is closing all stores across Canada. Sony is also closing many stores across Canada.

Also, does anyone else agree with me that it's time that the Avalon Mall renovated it's walking areas? New tile wouldn't hurt :tup: |
