Woodbine Centre

[slickpete83]

I just booked the booster shot appointment there for a couple of days before Christmas, as it was the earliest date offered in the list the booking site showed me. It wasn't the closest location to me, but it is quite easy and quick to get there with the TTC 927 Express route that zips up there from the Kipling subway station along Hwy 427.
And despite the date, I'm guessing there probably won't be the potential overcrowding that might exist at other malls.

maybe don't waste your time booking an appointment , I did a "walk in" at that exact location ( the Bay Woodbine Mall, the place is very big inside , once your inside the building it gets done really fast) and got a head of people who made appointments simply because I was first in line outside , some people who made appointments were pissed off with staff , one lady starting yelling "what's the !@#$% point of making an appointment"

Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the mall.

Not a shopkeep was stirring. Not one busy stall.

The storefronts were locked up and hallways just bare.

The smell of stale popcorn still fresh in the air.

Even Santa himself was bored with the view. With puzzling sights

....just like Pikachu.

The mall was more barren than what I remember.

Even old nick himself looked thin this December!

No time for weird pandas or old reindeer games.

As we shop at the stores devoid of brand names.

Gone Zellers,
gone Bulk Barn
once thriving before
Gone Payless
gone target
and nostalgia galore. .

Tired of the rot, we drove out of sight.

These pics were from google, have a wonderful night.

Rumour has it that Dollarama is moving from the Woodbine into Albion Mall. Does anyone know if there is any truth to this?

There is much truth to it; its better classed as 'fact' than rumour.

Possible. My (second hand) understanding of the plans for Woodbine don't envision the Dollarama there......or much else that remains.

That said, the timing on those plans (should they come to fruition) I don't have.............so its possible Dollarama could stick it out a bit longer.

At the risk of a side tangent........my mother used to donate to a couple of charities whose 'thank you' gift was free cards for Christmas/holidays

I have a box w/at least a 20-year supply.

I'm fairly certain I threw a bunch out when she passed, but there's still oodles of them.

I figured Dollarama was simply adding more stores in the Rexdale area; what with the new Dollarama just opening up at Kipling Plaza and all.

That would be just sad! Woodbine mall would lose ALOT of that happened...while Westwood mall's location is STILL standing STRONG!

 

[kade1064]

when TD bank leaves woodbine mall

Thats the ONLY bank in that mall...while Westwood has 6 banks IN THE SAME AREA

This is what Westwood mall (Christmas-Decor) looks like in 2021.

All Home has some GOOD DEALS on the second floor & Hudson's Bay looks good on the outside but lame & old on the inside.

It's funny how Bramalea City Centre "Hudson Bay" looks better on the inside But old on the outside...

What plans for Woodbine? The FAILED Renovation that was supposed to have in 2016-2020 NEVER HAPPENED! just some tile work and wallpaper for some ceilings in the mall. At least Westwood in Malton was able to promise a FULL reno for the mall...and did it, Unlike Woodbine.

What's w/the tone? I'm merely sharing information.

As to where Woodbine is headed, see this post:

Woodbine Centre

Woodbine mall didn't even get a full renovation like westwood square mall did in malton.
