Scotch & Soda is opening soon in Sherway. Fantastic stuff there usually.

To the person who wants Sherway to look like every other mall with Victoria's Secret, H&M, etc. I say no. Thats what makes Sherway what it is. I've also never seen an Urban Outfitters in a mall in any city or mall I've ever been to anyway, so unless I've missed them, I think that's part of their image. Malls are not urban, even when they are in cities.

Urban Outfitters is pretty big in malls in the U.S. I've seen tons of them.

What's keeping retailers out of Sherway is not lack of demand so much as lack of space. H&M would need ~ 20,000 sq ft for a store in Sherway, which I doubt Sherway has available right now or anytime in the near future without an expansion. Victoria's Secret also would require around 10,000 sq ft, which isn't small, but I think Sherway will get it.

Sherway is a high end mall - I love it!

Oh how many wasted hours we spent skipping classes in High School and driving down to Sherway.

They really are taking a different approach to the stores here compared to the US stores. I'm so used to seeing that vault looking store with the fiery Hot Topic sign. This looks much more industrial and rather bland. I suppose they are trying to reach a broader audience.

Yes, I agree Greg...this is the one in LA's outdoor Universal City...although this retail complex is uber-tourist-oriented, so I get the uber retail storefronts, however they could have used some of the design elements here in their new mall locations. The whole point of Hot Topic is being lured inside.

Yea the Hot Topic in Square One looks pretty low key and calm...
Oh and Hollister is opening in Limeridge Mall in Hamilton and Fairview Park Mall in Kitchener soon. Also, Bramalea city centre has about 100 new stores opening as of this fall..

But at least Yorkdale is getting an expansion. Square One the mall itself isn't getting one any time soon AFAIK.

 

[Edward Skira]

By the way, Hot Topic is now open in Square One. A Canadian first.

STC just got one as well.

 

[Cast_Member]

STC's Hot Topic is very small and I only noticed the men's section selling only one type of pants, skinny jeans. There are no French on the labels inside the clothes.

 

[Dan416]

Their entrance into the Canadian market does seem rather tepid.

 

[lordmandeep]

yeah...

Pickle barrel.


A nice cheap place to eat...

Victoria's Secret now open in Square One.
