It looks like Zara (Polo Park) is ready to open soon, they remove the hoarding right by Apple Court, and from the looks of it, merchandise it being setup. I could see them opening in time for Black Friday.

Sounds like Decathalon will be looking at a Winnipeg store in the coming years. Currently expanding in BC and Alberta.

“There are provinces we still do not address like Manitoba, Saskatchewan. Winnipeg is probably on the run map for the coming years. Our plan is also to open more stores in Vancouver because we probably need more than three stores as a minimum to be able to correctly address all the Vancouver market,” he said.

I heard a news report on the radio this afternoon that Kennaston is staying and the Regent (Kildonan Place) location is closing. Also closing are 17 more stores in Canada

Not sure the extent but I believe they're upgrading (or have recently upgraded) their seats to be the lounge style like at the KP location. St Vital was undergoing a similar change over.

Considering its for a sales advisor position one would think some sort of retail presence is coming.

I just visited Hudson's Bay @ Polo Park today for the first time since Winter last year. I wanted to see the mini-Zellers pop-up in the basement. I was a little disappointed with limited Zellers selection when compared to my regular expeditions to Hudson's Bay @ St Vital Centre where a quarter of the 2nd floor is Zellers. This Zellers pop-up occupied the area where Seasonal merchandise was displayed prior to 2020. The merchandise wasn't merchandised as densely as at St. Vital.

Surplus Market is gone. I wonder why Surplus Market closed inside Hudson's Bay Polo Park?

Their site says they are taking a break for now and to stay tuned.

2 job openings. Maybe they'll do one of those mall store sales centre things. Would fit with their current delivery model.

I would imagine this to prepare for Mark's moving into the mall?

Clearly it looks like they moved everyone on that side of the wing. My guess is they got a major retailer taking the whole thing.

Pretty sure it will be Mark's. Seem to recall it was mentioned in this forum awhile back.
