The Avalon Mall needs a complete do-over, at minimum to replace the insufficient sea of parking lots with a parkade AND to make the entire exterior of the building uniform.

1. The Hallway (from Gap / Payless down to Sears) 2. The Guts (Cell phone alley, Winners, and surrounding areas) 3. The Upstairs (Food court and all the upstairs stores) The mall doesn't really have flow, but fits nicely into the haphazard nature of St. John's. Although I doubt it will happen, I hope Crombie sells the mall to a company with a little more experience developing and running malls (Cadillac Fairview or Primaris). Any idea what is moving into the old KFC spot? Or will it just reopen as KFC at some point? |
please mum went into bankruptcy and shut down stores - they put signs up that said they are redoing themselves and blah blah reopen blah blah but i doubt they will or can

^Ouch. Vacation pay and severances are out the door? I'd be pissed if I worked there.

Yeah I totally agree. I have always said that there is no flow to the mall. They have that whole area by Bank of Nova Scotia where you wouldnt walk unless you were banking or going out that exit. I have no idea if there are any stores beyond the bank around that corner or not. They also need to go up one entire floor all the way down to Sears and put in some big ass skylights to bring more daylight into the mall. I always felt when walking around Avalon Mall that you were underground like the pathway in Toronto where they have all the stores underground near the subway stations.

I'm glad to see all the recent stores that have closed, and it's good that they're are not closed due simply because of poor performanc here.

I'm always afraid the place is going to fall in on itself, I also find a musty smell when I'm in that area. |

I was just speaking to a friend of the family who knows management at Starbucks and apparently they will be opening two more in the Stavanger area. One in Target and one in the new Empire Theatres :)

I am almost certain that Walmart intends on moving over to field power center and create a more robust store with expanded inventory. I also believe that Canadian Tire is slated to take over the currently existing Wal-mart
|
Was reading in the G&M recently and Canadian Tire said they are gonna be scaling back the size of the stores so it seems a bit strange they would be taking over such a large space like Walmart's, if Walmart moves out that is. Perhaps they will only take part of it and it will be divided up. I keep hearing that Walmart will be building a super centre at the Field Power centre but nothing seems to confirm that. If they do build there, it should bring some of the congestion off of Stavanger and people would most likely use White Rose Drive. Time will tell.
