Londonderry Mall is a shopping centre located in north Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It contains over 150 stores and services with seven major tenants. The mall opened in 1972 and has been expanded and renovated since.
Londonderry Mall has many notable stores, including a full service Shoppers Drug Mart, Save On Foods, The Bay, Winners, Fit 4 Less, a complete two level Edmonton Public Library branch, and coming soon, Simons.
The mall is currently undergoing a renovation that is scheduled for completion in 2017.
Londonderry Mall opened in 1972 with 85 stores and services. When it opened, it was the largest two-floor enclosed shopping centre in western Canada. Original tenants included The Bay (which still occupies the same spot), Woolco, and a movie theatre. Later, it would expand to include Safeway.
The mall underwent its first major expansion in late 1979, then again in the later 1980s. The mall added a wing to the west, and then to the south, which included Eatons, and the Edmonton Public Library. The mall expanded to 150 stores and services, and increased in popularity.
A renovation was completed in 1990 which saw the opening of a brand new food court in the centre of the mall. The renovation completely upgraded the mall from dark, and enclosed to a completely open, beautiful and spacious atmosphere. In the late 1990s, Eatons closed, and left an empty space. Save-On-Foods took that spot and is still there today.
2012 marked the 40th anniversary of the malls opening. The mall launched a large campaign around the anniversary, and hosted events such as contests and outdoor movie nights. The main contest was titled '40 Days Of Giveaways' and at the end a car was given away.
In late 2013, the relocation and closing of many major tenants and small stores left the mall with many unoccupied spaces.
In late 2014, the mall announced a complete mall renovation and remerchandising project that will enhance what the mall has to offer.
In September 2014, Londonderry Mall publicly announced a renovation and remerchandising project. Some large features will be:
This renovation is being designed by MMC Architects and GH+A Design. The renovation is expected to be complete in fall 2017
The old Sport Chek Supercentre being replaced by Simons
Londonderry Mall escalator being taken down.
The mall in early 2014 as the renovation begins.
The first phase of the renovation is now complete, which included the relocation of the food court and the renovation of the mall common areas, completely changing the face of the mall.
Londonderry is amongst several major malls in Edmonton in terms of size and significance. Amongst the list of comparable malls are: St. Albert Centre, Northgate Centre, Kingsway Garden Mall, Westmount Centre, Southgate Centre, Bonnie Doon Shopping Centre, Sherwood Park Mall, Edmonton City Centre, Commerce Place, Manulife Place, Meadowlark Health And Shopping Centre and West Edmonton Mall.
