History

The mall opened in 1972 as the Sheridan Mall with 80 stores. Its first significant renovations were in 1998.

The PTC underwent a $17 million renovation through 2008 and 2009. [2] This included new floors, ceilings, lighting and seating areas. It has a modern look and features an additional elevator.

On the morning of November 28, 2016, the Pickering Town Centre was flooded with water, causing the closure of the majority of the lower-level stores and Santa's Castle. The cause of the flooding was due to a broken water main. [3] [4] Most stores had reopened by December 1, 2016. [5]

Following the closure of Target Canada in 2015, in 2017, the former Target store at the mall was replaced by three new stores, a Saks Off 5th outlet store, Cineplex Cinemas 11 and VIP movie theatre and a Farm Boy food market. In 2018 new stores were added, such as Winners/HomeSense and an Hakim Optical store. There are also redevelopment plans for the former Famous Players movie theatre and a Sears department store (under demolition to be replaced by condos [6] ) at the mall.
