I remember when Scotia Square opened and there were shops in both the upper and lower malls, with a movie theater across from the Woolco store in the upper mall. I remember going to the new Woolco with my mom and walking down the broad staircase that led from Duke St onto the sales floor.

Well, I'm not as old as Keith, but I'm not young either. I remember Scotia Square back in the day with two floors of stores, the Woolco of course, a "50's" themed diner where you could get a bottle of Coke from a cooler that was fashioned into the trunk of an old car (57' chevy or such). Movie cinemas upstairs across from Woolco, yes. There was also a sort of animatronic Christmas show put on by NS Light and Power that we were bussed over from Dartmouth to see everyear as a class trip.
