I wonder if Uniqlo would consider opening downtown. Funny how downtown Vancouver has no Uniqlo. Also weird how the Simons is in North Van. But both are rumoured to be opening downtown soon.

Plus, there's a LL Bean in Halifax as well (Dartmouth Crossing). Don't know if Uniqlo locates in big box developments as Dartmouth Crossing could be a potential location if there's no suitable space at the Halifax Shopping Centre. The retail cluster on Spring Garden Road in D/T Halifax could be a decent location; again if there's a large enough space available. Lululemon has one of its Halifax stores on Spring Garden Road.
It is strange there's only one Simons in the GVRD. Certainly the market could support a store at Pacific Centre and Metrotown.
