It's been there for at least the last few years...Judging by the condition of the store exterior, I would imagine it's there by a combination of the two...

It may be there by design being that the northwest side has a green wall...

I noticed that Spencer Gifts in Square One is gone, which is unfortunate because it catered to alternative tastes and was one of the few reasons I ever went to that mall. Does anyone know if it relocated elsewhere or is it gone for good?

It closed a while ago. It's gone for good. It was only really ever busy around Halloween.
By the way, Hot Topic is now open in Square One. A Canadian first.

That's some nice retail! I think this new retail is going to be a real game changer for the area.

Uh, strip mall? Where have you been? This is a nicer looking big box centre or power centre or whatever you want to call it. But it is not a strip mall. I mean, there's no "strip" so how can it be a strip mall?
Coliseum, Playdium, Jack Astor's, etc. are all classified as temporary. I'm not sure about this retail here. It may be, but until the retail has stuff above it, I wouldn't classify it as permanent forever. That said, these temporary structures sure can last a long time.

What, strip malls are so passe now 
In some aspects strip malls are better really if you think about it ... in many ways really - once you get past the parking lot at least there is at times a little pedestrian activity as all the stores are connected from the outside and there's typically a continuous sidewalk.
Yes power centers / big box centers / the home of the penguin (think smart centers) .. they're all the same, and it's really not a nicer looking one in any way compared to what's been built in the last 5 years throughout the GTA - it's nicer then say the power centers of 10 years ago.
If the rest are temporary - very long term so, I presume so is this, so that's fine then.
