Driving through town today, something I don’t do often, I noticed that the sign for the Centre Ice Plaza is once again back up. When they first put it up you could barely read the name of the place, so when it came down I assumed it was to make a bigger one.
Along with the name of the place they have listed the two business which are already open, Bank of Montreal and Family Vision Centre. Below that there is a list of the “Coming Soon” businesses, which include: Nico’s Market, Barrenland Jewellery, Stanton Finace Dept.(?), L’Heritage Restaurant and Lube-X
I was actually a little surprised by this list of businesses. I was expecting a couple more retails stores than just Barrenland and Nico’s.
I am a little concerned for Barrenland, one of the perks of being in a retail populated outlet is you get customers from other stores but it doesn’t seem there will be many.
I am not sure of the date of the centre’s official opening becuase Polar Developments was closed when I called. The Feastival of Trees is being held at the plaza tonight (Nov 21) so I would assume the opening will be sometime in the next month or two.
What is your take on this new plaza now that you have an idea of the businesses that will be occupying it?
