Place Vertu is a Canadian shopping centre in the Montreal borough of Saint-Laurent in Quebec. It is located on Côte Vertu boulevard, corner of Thimens boulevard.
Popular stores include Canadian Tire, Zellers, Uniprix, Sports Experts and Sears. Three of Canada's Big Five banks (Royal Bank, CIBC and TD Canada Trust) have branches in the mall. There is also a food court, with restaurants such as A&W, and Subway. There is a McDonald's located outside of the food court, and a Scores located near Zellers. The mall is about 830,000 square feet, and has a high-rise building between the former and the current anchor spaces of Zellers.
Tenants in the 1970s were The Bay, Sears, Pascal, Kmart and Dominion . In 1983, Dominion became Provigo. In the 1990s tenants were still the same, except Pascal became Zellers and Provigo became Maxi in 1994 (later closed in the early 2000s). However, Sears is now the only original large store at Place Vertu since the closure of The Bay in May 2007 (now occupied by Zellers) and Kmart in 1998 (now occupied by Canadian Tire). Zellers' old space (formerly Pascal) is currently empty.
[edit] Trivia
The Bay at Place Vertu was the last store on the Island of Montreal that originally openned as a Bay store. The remaining Bay stores in this region are all former Henry Morgan or Simpsons stores.
