Cataraqui Centre, (formerly "Cataraqui Town Centre") is a shopping mall located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. It is the largest mall in southeastern Ontario with over 141 stores. There are also two vacant anchor stores, last occupied by Sears and Hudson's Bay. It also includes a major transfer point for Kingston Transit with the Isabel Turner library branch at the edge of the parking lot.
Cataraqui Town Centre opened in September, 1982 as a two level mall with Simpsons and Zellers department stores and a Loblaws supermarket. Simpsons was rebranded as The Bay (another brand within the same chain, the Hudson's Bay Company) in 1986.[1] In September 1999, Sears relocated from the Kingston Centre to a new store at Cataraqui which anchored a new addition. Along with the new addition came a revamping of the mall's interior, and the relocation of the escalators and food court. Loblaws moved down Midland Avenue in 2001, and their former space was converted to a new expanded food court, Shoppers Drug Mart, and a Sport Chek store. Zellers was replaced with Target in 2013; the latter closed in 2015.
