Now I wonder what could go in that large and very lucrative space which is run by Crombie Properties who also own Avalon Mall or will they chop it up into smaller retail spaces? Be interesting to see what happens.

Too bad. I enjoyed Toys R Us. Unfortunately leaves us with on Walmart for local toys and similar. They had a lot of good things for babies etc as well. I guess Walmart and Amazon have killed all Canadian retail.
Its too bad we don't have a Canadian alternative to Walmart. And the worst is that leaves us with a Walmart monopoly that can charge whatever they want. Sad sad days...
