Directory Of Shopping Malls In Vancouver

**Lansdowne Centre From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Lansdowne Centre as seen from the parking lot. Lansdowne Centre (formerly Lansdowne Park Shopping Centre) is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia. Officially, it is located on No. 3 Road but it stretches as far north as Alderbridge Road, as far south as Lansdowne Road and as far east as Kwantlen Street. This Richmond shopping destination has 120+ stores and services. Anchor stores include Best Buy, Future Shop, Home Hardware, Home Outfitters, HomeSense, JYSK, Toys "R" Us, Winners and Zellers (closing down to be replaced with Target). 30 minutes from Downtown Vancouver and only 10 minutes from YVR. Home of the Lansdowne Canada Line station, Food Court and seven restaurants. 5 acres (20,000 m2) of free parking. Public transit, serviced by TransLink, has connections to the mall with routes to Downtown Vancouver, New Westminster and the University of British Columbia. The 98 B-Line, a former bus rapid transit line from Richmond Centre to Vancouver International Airport and Downtown Vancouver, had two stops servicing the mall, named Lansdowne and Alderbridge. The newly completed Canada Line, the 98 B-Line's successor, has a station, named Lansdowne Station, which services the mall. The mall was built on a former horse-racing track, named Lansdowne Park, after which the mall was named. It was owned by Woodward's, the anchor tenant of the mall from the opening in 1977 and sold to investors in 1984.

Aberdeen Centre is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia. It is located in the Golden Village district on Hazelbridge Way, bordered by Cambie Road to the north. It primarily serves the Asian Canadian population in the Metro Vancouver area, but is striving towards an appeal to Western customers as well[citation needed]. It was named after the famous Aberdeen Harbour of Hong Kong. Aberdeen Centre is also in the process of constructing a condominium complex attached to the mall itself. The mall is owned by the Fairchild Group, a company that also owns and operates many of the Chinese language television channels and radio stations in Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto. Free wireless internet access is available in the mall primarily in the 3rd floor food court.[1]

Parker Place (百家店) is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia. It is located on No. 3 Road, in the middle of Richmond's Golden Village, the main Asian district. It is primarily a mall to serve the Asian Canadian population. It contains about 150 stores, including the new wing built in the mid-1990s named Parker Place Phase II (with the original portion deemed Parker Place Phase I). Most of its stores are mid-sized and there are no real dominant tenants. Parking spaces are located around the mall as well as the rooftop which are usually filled to capacity during weekends or during special events. The food court contains a water fountain, which can be shut down and converted to a stage during special events. Since the Canada Line's completion in August, 2009, Parker Place is accessible by rapid transit, by walking a short distance from Aberdeen Station.

Richmond Centre is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada. Officially, it is located on No. 3 Road but it stretches as far west as Minoru Boulevard, and as far north as Westminster Highway. Richmond City Hall is immediately south of the mall. By the number of stores, it is the largest mall in Richmond with 250 stores and services; it is the second largest in terms of area. Notable retailers include The Bay, Sears, Apple Store, Forever 21, The Gap, Shoppers Drug Mart, Tim Hortons, Starbucks, Sport Chek and Atmosphere. Part of the mall was once known as Richmond Square. Famous Players has had a presence at Richmond Centre dating back to the mall's origins as Richmond Square, first opening the Richmond Square Twin Theatre (consisting of the 700-seat "Richmond" and the 478-seat "Islander") in 1968. The "Richmond" auditorium was divided down the middle in 1980 to make Richmond Square a triple theatre; the theatre was closed in 1990 and demolished to make way for parking for the expanded and renamed mall and was replaced by the now closed cinema complex that used to be at the west exit of the food court. Currently in construction is an expanded area of the mall, being made where the recent theater was. Almost all public transit buses in Richmond, serviced by TransLink, have connections to the mall, with additional routes to Surrey, Burnaby, Downtown Vancouver, New Westminster, and Delta. In addition to being the main public transit transfer point in Richmond, the Canada Line's SkyTrain terminus station Richmond–Brighouse is located across from Shoppers Drug Mart exit on No 3 Road

Yaohan Centre (八佰伴中心) is a shopping centre in the Golden Village district of Richmond, British Columbia. It caters mainly to Asian people, mainly those of Chinese and Japanese descent. It is located on Richmond's busy Golden District shopping district, and is next door to another Asian-centric mall, Aberdeen Centre. Yaohan Centre was owned by the Japanese company Yaohan until the company's demise in the late 1990s. The President Group, a Taiwanese company which also owns the President Plaza mall next to Yaohan, took over the management of the mall ever since. It is anchored by Osaka Supermarket, which belongs to the group of T & T Supermarket chain stores.

 President Plaza (統一廣場) is an Asian-themed shopping mall located in the Golden Village district of Richmond, British Columbia, at the intersection of Cambie Road at No. 3 Road, between Yaohan Centre and Aberdeen Centre. The mall's anchor tenant is T & T Supermarket, a supermarket chain based in Richmond. The complex also includes the Radisson hotel on its western side, a Fo Guang Shan-operated Buddhist temple on the top level, and various office suites above the second floor. On the second floor of the mall, there is a small food court. Most of the kiosks have closed, due to lack of business and competition from the newly rebuilt and re-opened Aberdeen Centre across the street.  *
