Toronto Eaton Centre (Ongoing Renewal) | ?m | ?s | Cadillac Fairview | Zeidler

[Skeezix]

Although Ivanhoé Cambridge has announced plans to merge the Eaton Centre in Montreal with the Complexe Les Ailes next door and rename the whole thing. The CF-branding is likely just an ego-driven exercise across the board rather than some pissing match, but who could say for sure.

Ottawa's Rideau centre has CF in front of its name as well. But in my opinion is actually quite nice.

I don't think the CF logo/branding in the name is ugly - just busy.

Westfield - the Australian firm that owns dozens of malls in the US - is notorious for putting their name before every shopping mall they own too. CadFair probably suddenly thought it was a good idea too.

It's funny because I think management branding is a little ridiculous. The only people who care about the management/ownership are realtors, retailers and those looking to sue.

"Oh honey, we absolutely have to go to a CadFair mall when we're in Toronto.", said by no one ever.

I wonder how much longer will Uniqlo be having long lineups outside of the store?

 

[Canadian Chocho]

I was there today and there was no line to get in.

 

[T.E.C.II]

There was a line when I walked past today. Maybe you got lucky?

 

[ksun]

Honestly, I think people are just excited for the store. It's not about being "first".

yeah. Look at Muji today. Rarely busy any longer.

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic as Muji always seems busy.

Here's a video showing the completed signs at EC. Was that CIBC logo always on the Atrium building? Never noticed it before.
Also, I really don't like how blank the Uniqlo signage looks. All that white space for nothing.

It does not show up in June 2016 Streetview.

The CIBC sign was installed just a few days ago.

Does someone know when they will build the new skybridge ?
Thank you .
