^ it's because on-paper Hamilton doesn't look very good. Highest poverty rate in Canada, highest office vacancy, and lack of locations.

Lime Ridge rents are astronomical, waiting list (unless they want the store), and with Body Shoppe and Fruits and Passions already there, Bath & Body probably passed.

What Hamilton needs is stretches of street retail stores, like Younge Street. with A-Tier retailers, Guess, Gap, a steakhouse chain etc.
