I believe the Montreal Time Out is in the old Eaton building. It needs to be a draw in itself or don't bother.

The Bay building is an interesting suggestion, and yes, similar to the Eaton building in Montreal with some architectural heritage. Ideally it would be right in the business district to attract all of the people that work there for an all-day clientele, but the Bay isn't that far away. it would work great with History as a place for pre- and post-show food, and maybe even as a second stage. I'm not sure how the Rideau Centre would feel about a competing food hall across the street, but maybe they would be happy to have something that acts as a big draw with a direct connection to the mall.
