History

Kildonan Place opened on September 24, 1980,[3][1] with anchors Sears, Hudson's Bay, and Dominion Foods.[4]

At the opening the Hudsons Bay store was the largest single-floor Bay store in Canada.[5]

An additional 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2). of large format stores and in-line stores is planned.[6] In spring 2013, the location of the former Zellers store (closed in November 2012) opened as one of the first Target stores in the city.[7]

In October, 2016, crews started demolishing the inside of the former Target store and converting it into smaller sections. The new stores will be accessed from inside the mall, with HomeSense taking up 21,000 square feet and Marshalls at 24,000 square feet.[8] Up to 11 new stores will be joining the mall starting with a mid-may opening followed by a second grand opening event later in summer of 2017.

The addition will include HomeSense, Marshalls, H&M, Urban Planet, Hakim Optical, Skecher's, CAA & HUB Insurance. In addition, Mastermind Toys, Qdoba, Coal Fired by Carbone, and Almond Nail Bar will be added as free standing units.

In June 2019, it was announced that a new 35,000 sq. ft. six-screen movie theatre / entertainment facility would be built replacing the previous 30 year old movie theatre in the old dominion foods location. The new theatre is to be placed in the old Sears location alongside a new food court and grocery store. Among the expansion, several new stores will be included and the previous food court and theatre will be torn down. It is expected to be open in late 2021. [9]
