- Interesting news about Sephora. Apparently Fossil is interested in Champlain Place as well.
I would say that the Additionelle relocation to Cassis is permanent. Smart Set however will move back into their old location. So, vacancies to be filled include the old Additionelle location, the old Marie Claire location and the current Soft Moc location. I imagine these will be filled by the summer.

Good notes!
I would agree that the AddittionElle move into the former Cassis spot is permanent based on the way they set up their signage, however their former location is currently U/C so that leaves three options:
- AdditionElle is renovating and moving back
- SmartSet will expand into AdditionElles old space (unlikely, as it would be huge for them)
- A new store is taking AdditionElles slot (my personal favorite
)
SoftMoc moving to the Roots slot is a big step up for them, at least 2X bigger than their old slot. Their old slot is quite small...would be perfect for Fossil or Sephora (ps I had never heard of that store before, but the couple of women Ive mentioned it to basically went nuts with excitement so Im guessing it will be a hit
)
Booster Juice and PretzelMaker opening up next to Sobeys will create a sort of a "mini food court" there...as there is already a seating area and a quick food counter in Sobeys.
Forgot to mention that MasterCuts took over the former Jean Raymond haircutting (out with the local, in with the national). And also Cleo near Wal-Mart has closed for renovation.
In case anyone was curious... Cassis closed
all their stores and went out of business as a whole.
