| - Yorkdale of the West-end...on a waaay smaller, less luxurious scale!
This is probably an unfair review as the mall is currently undergoing a MAJOR reno! Some stores are either closed, moved, & you hafta trek down a tunnel in order to get to Holts.
(Btw, the Holts here pales in comparison to Bloor or even Yorkdale - no Chanel/LV/high-end brands with tiny shoe dept, so I hope an expansion of this store is in the works! As it stands right now, this is sorta an embarrassment to the chain. I even saw a brand that they were selling at a Winners, but for triple the price!?!)
Lotsa mothers with strollers as this mall is only 1-level, with the exception of the food court. Layout of the mall is a figure-8. At times, it can be a bit confusing finding a specific store if you're at the wrong end of the mall.
What I do like is that there's tons of natural lighting via the skylights! Also plenty of seating in the halls to take a break. Convenient meeting place at the centre of the mall.
I can't wait 'til Nordstrom's opens and I hope that that does not disappoint 'cause their shoe department ROCKS!!! Besides, Holts desperately needs some competition. ;)
Tip: I always park at the lower level, beside new parkade, of Hudson's Bay without any problems!
P.S. This mall NEEDS a Zara, stat!
