There've been a few of these in Toronto. Here a once windswept plaza was replaced by a shopping centre: https://goo.gl/maps/VPm67doUBeQRouJ78
Before: https://goo.gl/maps/aMa2AL2RzSE2akJ56

Here's a more unfortunate one, with the original intent of the Brutalist-era architecture being severely compromised by the new retail component: https://goo.gl/maps/awJSn9ypfcaaKL3z6

There's been a lot of tower-in-the-park infill as well, with new towers or townhouses built on the vacant land. Eg:
