Chapters, Indigo and Coles are all the same company.

There are other bookstores in Barrie, if you know how to look. There have to be. I can't accept that a city can get that big without having one.

Actually, I found a used bookstore in downtown barrie earlier. It was like one those bookstores you'd find in horror movie. The ones with very narrow hallways. Thats what it was like. It was called Karries Bookstore or somethin'.

Yes indeed. It had lots of old books. Its the perfect place to just curl up in a chair and read! Except for the facts that some of the lights didn't work. So, parts of the bookstore were very dark.

And, now getting back to topic. I think my favorite building in barrie has to be the South Shore Centre. It has amazing views of the waterfront.

Ok thanks i looked it up apparently it's office or residence or something hmm I suppose it's big enough for the database as a low-rise anyway

Also does anyone have any photos of a 14 storey building that's pretty much downtown barrie overlooking the lake called Watercrest i'm having a hard time finding photos of it. it was just finished last year googleearth has ones of it U/C
