(the current Ogilvy store is 160 000 sf - for comparison: Saks Fifth Ave in downtown Toronto is 170 000 sf, Saks at Sherway Gardens is 144 000 sf, Saks in downtown Calgary is 115 000, while Holt Renfrew on Bloor in Toronto is 170 000 sf).
The new complex in Montreal will include individual boutiques for Chanel, Dior, Fendi, Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Prada and Tiffany & Co. It will have a direct access to the new Four Seasons Hotel.
No news yet on what will happen with the Art Deco Holt Renfrew location on Sherbrooke street West, which will close when the new location opens.

Hmmm, some of those store comparisons seem off.
Firstly, there's no Saks in dt Calgary; did they mean Holts?
Has the dt Toronto Saks moved or expanded recently? When I was there in the summer, it seemed like a temporary location
within The Bay. One minute you're in The Bay, then Saks, then you turn a corner and you're in The Bay again. I was in a rush with my three year old in tow, but it definitely didn't seem like a dedicated store, and certainly not 170k sf
Either way, the new store in Montreal sounds very nice!
