Putting condos and/or new rentals on the site is probably the only way of saving the mall, but this isn't exactly a high-demand area for highrise living. It'd have to be a slow rollout.
Not surprised that Sears is closing. Not even Target wanted the Zellers store there. A grocery store could do well, especially with more residents nearby. Fortinos across Highway 27 need not be the only store in the area.
The hotel is a pipe dream, especially if Woodbine Live! across the street can't even go anywhere. Of the two hotels in the immediate area, one closed a decade ago and was converted to an immigration detention centre.
