Anyone who has been to the Toronto Eaton Centre over the past week or two may have noticed the hoarding at what used to be Brown’s Shoes (which will should re-open at Sephora’s former home in a few weeks). It did have me wondering – why on Earth would LOFT open on the third floor, […]
We all know that Target is set to arrive in Toronto next year. While most of the locations will be in more suburban/residential parts of the city, there will also be at least one set to be a “CityTarget,” which was announced recently.

I’m a little disappointed to hear that the wait is going to be this long. I was hoping that all of the stores would open by late […]
