Both Apple and Crate & Barrel have been looking for a large space near Yonge & Bloor for awhile now without success. Guess they'll have to wait for 1 Bloor or Cumberland Terrace.

EQ3 Final Call will be opening next week under the main EQ3 store in Mozo (King & Sherbourne). I think the space was previously used as the sales office for Rezen.
 
Not that interesting or exciting, but I noticed today that Ardene's is opening another store in the old Book City space south of Yonge & Hayden.
 
H&M's third Mississauga location opens Oct 2 at Heartland Town Centre, in the old Winners space (not the whole space from the look of it)
 
Coming soon to a parking lot near you. McDonalds - here we grow again. Bay & Elm.

Wow, that's crazy! Never seen those! I guess their really wanting to reach everyone everywhere! Giving the dingy Coffee Time a run for its money!
 
The retail space in the Park Hyatt at the northwest corner of Bloor & Avenue Rd. is reportedly asking $35,000 a month. Used to be a cigar shop & lounge.
 
Maybe an easy way for Bed Bath and Beyond to grow much quicker beyond their two GTA stores...

Linens 'N Things seeks protection in Canada

Thom Weidlich, Bloomberg News Published: Monday, October 20, 2008

The Canadian operating unit of Linens 'n Things Inc., the bankrupt housewares retailer, filed for protection under Canada's bankruptcy law.

Linens 'n Things Canada expects to appear in court in the next week to seek approval to liquidate the business, the company said Monday in a statement distributed by Business Wire.

"This is a difficult day, especially since our Canadian stores were among the best performing stores," the company's chief restructuring officer Michael Gries said.

Earlier this month, the company won permission in U.S. bankruptcy court to shut its 411 stores and sell the remaining merchandise.

U.S. Bankruptcy Court Judge Christopher Sontchi in Wilmington, Delaware, approved Linens' request to hire six companies that specialize in retail liquidations. In return for the right to conduct the sales, the joint venture has promised Linens will collect US$510-million from the liquidations.

Approval by the Canadian court would allow the company to also close its 40 stores in that country, the company said in the statement.

Linens 'n Things, based in Clifton, New Jersey, has been shutting stores, firing employees and liquidating merchandise since it filed for court protection on May 2. Linens failed to attract a last-minute buyer for the entire chain and decided to close its remaining stores in the U.S. and Canada beginning this month.

Before filing for bankruptcy, Linens had 589 stores and more than 15,000 employees in the U.S. Since then, the company has shut more than 200 stores and laid off thousands of workers. The company has 371 stores left in the U.S.

The U.S. bankruptcy case is In re Linens Holdings Co., 08-10832, U.S. Bankruptcy Court, District of Delaware (Wilmington).

Goodwill still turns up interesting finds. Last week, for $8, I bought an as-new ( 1950s/1960s? ) black dyed camel hair fall/spring Spencer jacket with Crombie and Eaton's College Street Men's Shop labels - at their Coxwell outlet. No collar, black piping, three buttons, side pockets, quite stylish in a Perry Como sort of way.
