Dollar Tree has recently opened at Riocan Warden and Eglinton south west corner. Smaller store compared to other competitors nearby. www.riocan.com/Content/PDF/sitePlan/189A.pdf

They will be closing. Not surprising that McDonald's is so late 80's.

From what I read on the website called Cinema Treasures, the Humber Cinemas has been closed recently and I don't know why.

Maybe Cineplex wants to replace the cinemas at First Markham Place probably they felt it is out of date and too small to expand due to its location inside the mall.

The new Cineplex Odeon will be opening in 2013 and it will have 3 V.I.P. rooms also. www.marketwire.com/press-release/cineplex-entertainment-announces-new-theatre-with-vip-cinemas-downtown-markham-ontario-tsx-cgx-1558656.htm

Cineplex will be the operator of the new multiplex. Not only the new multiplex will have 10 screens but also 3 V.I.P. rooms. This new multiplex maybe replacing an older one at First Markham Place. www.yorkregion.com/what's on/article/1080113--new-theatre-coming-soon-to-markham

According to the Canadian Trade-marks Database, the "Thrift" name was owned by Dominion and so yes, the store was affiliated with a big chain...

Totally unsanitary.

Toronto was so cluttered back in the days.

The washrooms in the old food court are the worst there along with T.T.C. and Dragon City. Hopefully, the new ones are well kept.

I don't understand why "Lord" Simcoe Hotel doesn't have A/C.

You were actually an usher there?

Empire Theatres is introducing their version of the Ultra AVX theatre called Empire Extra, it will open later this year at their Empress Walk location. Here is the link: www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/May2011/16/c4747.html

Cineplex is very quick, Scotiabank Theatre already converted to digital except the Imax.

I don't know why but I find the name "Steak Queen" to be somewhat funny.

Before 1976, all the stops were painted on utility poles. I don't remember which issues of T.T.C.'s Coupler magazine circa 1975 explaining the replacement of painted stops but I agree, that picture is probably late 70's or 1980 judging by the car stop.

Just like Robocop, half human and half machine.

I was once overwhelmed by the smell of Kit Kat bars on that bridge.

K.F.C. is still there.
