Edmonton City Centre [2] is a shopping mall in the downtown core of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, across the street (west) from Churchill Square.
In 1974, the City Centre Place office tower (Oxford Tower) was completed within the larger Edmonton Centre development; TD Tower was added in 1976. [3] In 1978, Oxford Tower (now MNP Tower) and the Four Seasons Hotel (now Sandman Signature Edmonton) were built on the north edge of the site. Across the street a new development was in planning by Triple Five Corporation. The original plan for what was then called Eaton Centre, announced in 1980, called for several large office and apartment towers. None of the originally designed five towers was ever built but the multi-level Eaton Centre mall and the Delta Edmonton Centre Suite Hotel were salvaged from the project by heavy civic tax subsidies.
