Purdys is scheduled for a September opening, the space is pretty small so once work begins it should be pretty quick.

The Rona store on Mapleton Road is now under corporate ownership. The previous owners (Terrain Capital) have backed away from their involvement with five Atlantic Canadian Rona stores.

Miniso at Champlain Place apparently opens today.

Urban Barn is now confirmed for the Mapleton Centre. There is a job advert on line.

The opening is apparently scheduled for October of this year. Renovations to the old Ashley Home Store must be imminent.

A slight revision to the above post.

Urban Barn is actually moving into the former Sounds Fantastic space next to Lindt. There is signage posted in the windows. Construction is already underway. An October opening date is highly probable.

also. Ocean Trail Source for Adventure is now gone. This was a subsidiary of Cleve's and the two stores are internally connected. As predicted, Cleve's has moved into this space, and has relocated their hockey equipment section here. It has increased the physical size of this department quite substantially. I was talking to a clerk in there and, there is the possibility they may actually rebrand this space as a dedicated "hockey shop", perhaps with distinct external signage.
