History

Development for the mall started in the late 1970s; it was designed so that people would not have to leave Mill Woods to get access to major department stores. [2] In 2012, Zellers closed to become Target. In 2013, Safeway closed and became a Co-op. The Edmonton Public Library branch closed in 2015 and moved to a nearby location.

In 2017, building owner RioCan announced a plan to redevelop the site over the next 25 years, which would include a new transit station to serve the upcoming Mill Woods LRT stop and two new 18-story residential towers. [3]

December 2022 the Mall location was obtained by Maclab Development Group and currently making plans for future development . [4]

Transit

The Mill Woods Transit Centre is located on the east side of the mall on Hewes Way.
