New building on the corner of Esplanade and Chesterfield, across from the theater, next to IGA, and replacing the Thai restaurant, announced its tenants. There will be a TD bank and a Boston Pizza.

The theater plus a boston pizza should be enough to draw crowds.

A rather bizarre cafe has opened at the base of the Pier. It shows art, including a bollywood movie in a large empty room, and has a few tables in quite a large space. Recently it looks to be retooling to be more of a Cafe. If it survives it likely will do alright once the hotel opens.

Still gunning for a nice bookstore to open in lower lonsdale.
