Is there potential for street presence or access for some of these retailers?

I doubt it. This is the -2 level we're talking about here.

Actually Level 2 is -1, but it's still below ground, so I agree, no street presence for these ones (other than H&M).

If the length of the hoarding on the Level 2 hall that's been plastered with H&M imagery will actually have H&M behind all of it, that's quite the expansion.

I wouldn't doubt it. They really do need the space.

Just checked out the 2nd Level last night. I didn't think continuing the mall upwards would be a good idea on this level, but it flows pretty much like the 1st Level. Should be exciting!

hoarding through the old Sears to the mall lists these stores:

H&M
Tumi
Ever New
Saje
Oak & Fort
Rudsack
Thomas Sabo
L'Occitane
Champs Sports
Pandora

May be worth noting that the space that these ten retailers have been announced for on Level 2 is taken up by 20 retailers on Level 1, so either the stores on average will be twice the size, or there are more to be announced for Level 2.

Nespresso is about to open a pop-up boutique on level 1 of the Eaton Centre, not sure where exactly. It will remain open until the fall. Probably while renovations are happening in the lower level of Hudson's Bay.

 

[PinkLucy]

It's open. I just walked past. It's right by the escalator to the urban eatery area. There are line ups

 

[Hairball]

Ah, that was where a Bell kiosk was, and previously was Microsoft before they opened a store.

With the opening of the Nespresso pop-up shop, the Bell Store has finished their renovations and re-opened their storefront on Level 2. They're tried to make the entrance more homey and "living room" like.
It's still split in that odd two-storey design, where you enter the store and have to go downstairs if you are looking for anything else from Bell other than a cell phone.

The store's trilingual: English, French and Spanish. Where's Portuguese?! I guess the thinking is the second largest country in the Americas and its contingent of athletes aren't worth the effort.

Meh... Us Portuguese are capable of understanding Spanish anyway

Spanish and Portuguese are both Romance languages (and so is French).

The Pan Am Store staff speaks one Germanic (English) and two Romance languages (French and Spanish) (and if enough Brazilians visit, then they would probably hire someone who can speak the third Romance language).

The official language of the games is English and Spanish - French is added because it is an official language of the host country. Just a protocol thing as opposed to a marketing one.
