| - This is a shopping mall.
Fairview has changed quite a bit in the past 10 years. I worked there in 1999-2000 and as I remember it, right then, a lot of shops had closed and it was somewhat boring (you know, more than your usual suburbia mall). Since maybe the mid 2000's, new stores have put up shops and it's actually fun to go shopping there (I wrote shopping, not hanging out! ;) - I know I'll find what I'm looking for and I'll have a few options to choose from.
So Fairview doesn't reinvent the wheel. It's not the West Edmonton Mall nor the Galleries de la Capital (Québec City) either ; its architecture isn't magical, it's not huge... BUT you will find everything in here!
From your bookstore (Renaud-Bray), to your cheap essentials (Winners!), to The Bay, Gap, Sephora (this is the only place where you'll find one in the 514 btw), Apple Store, Kernels Popcorn (!), etc. etc. Plus, it also has quite a decent food court.
Et voilà... simple and basic; what you see is what you get.
