All I could find is an approval for a Capital Home Hardware at 1297 Topsail Road on the Town Of Paradise’s municipal agenda dated March 3, 2021. They were also granted tax incentives too.

Isla and Sam on Water Street is closing. I see on their facebook its because the building sold - I guess they were leasing the space. Hopefully someone else opens up there.
|
Cineplex is closing the Mount Pearl Square location.

Surprised it took this long to make that decision.
With the current times complicated by the pandemic and streaming networks seemingly taking over with releasing first run movies, cinemas are declining in certain markets these days. I actually fear for the survival of the cinemas at Avalon Mall too. :( Quote:

Hakim Optical in Village Mall temporarily closed until further notice. Been closed for at least a couple weeks. I had heard they were opening a location in the Avalon Mall as well but I'm guessing that is not still planned.

Was at the Village today and noticed that they are gutting out the former Klondike Jakes space. Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t there a pool hall or something like that slated to go in there?

In others news, it looks like the old Stockwoods on Freshwater Road has (finally) been purchased. No idea what the plan for the site is.
|
That old building is ancient and so run down. Probably rat infested now. Probably better off being torn down and start anew.

Rumours floating around again about Giant Tiger coming to town. This time in the former Walmart location on Topsail Road (which would be an excellent location in my opinion). Anyone hear of anything to back up the rumours? I couldn’t find anything from Giant Tiger itself or from Crombie REIT which owns that property.

Hakim Optical is reopening their Village Mall location on Sept 20.

Apologies up front. This story has nothing to do with St. John’s but is interesting nonetheless.
The Hudson Bay Company in Burlington Ontario is surprisingly opening a pop-up “Zellers” Store within its Hudson Bay Store. They still own the rights to the Zellers name after selling most of its Zellers physical store leases to Target several years ago. Well that didn’t go well for Target and now they are all gone too. I wonder if The owners are testing the retail market for a possible Zellers return to Canada in stand-alone physical store format? HBC is currently struggling to survive these days to stay relevant and profitable. Could the return of the discount Zellers chain be its saviour. This is intriguing. Here is the link the the Retail-Insider article.... https://retail-insider.com/retail-in...cation-photos/ |
Pipers Mount Pearl
Heard on the radio that Piper's newest store was opening in Mount Pearl today.
