A fantastic before and (almost) after comparison of the entire complex from before the redevelopment of the site and the construction of the project to when it was almost complete (now that it is complete)
The images (City of Burnaby and Google Earth) are from a great write-up they did at the Daily Hive over the 'Cave-On Foods' collapse from '88.

Circa mid-to-late '1990's (you can tell it's pre-2000's from the lack of any towers at all on Beresford Row in the background)
2021 (-ish)
pre-2010
2022 (-ish)
Memory lane overload:
I remember the A &W Burger at the Square, the Future Shop (which is now effectively the Best Buy), the relocated Boston Pizza, Famous Players 7 and Cineplex Odeon 5, ...and was it a Red Robin?
