Checked out Bed Bath & Beyond at Aura today and I've gotta say, that store is beautiful and HUGE inside. The connection to PATH is also open now. Overall, it is well done inside.
I checked it out, too. The store has that American/suburban feel, which I suppose is to be expected. Like the Marshalls at Richmond/John, the store design was not altered to suit its downtown setting. So it has a somewhat generic feeling--while in the store there is nothing to say you are in Aura or in downtown Toronto. There are a tremendous number of products available at that store, I must say, like lots of kitchen gadgets and stuff, in addition to the Bed and Bath.
The concourse level was interesting. There is a warren of tiny shops, which reminded me of some of those Chinese malls in Markham. Too small for large chain stores, I wonder what kind of retailers would open there?
There is an underground connection to College Park, although you have to go through what look like Emergency Exit doors in order to get there.
