Seems like that mall is emptying out fast. I wonder who will go next?

I agree, went in there a couple of times and couldn't afford the cover charge. :dyinglaughing:

That's the one. Someone posted in this thread that it has closed. Can anyone confirm this?

They are not on the Westside, so not sure what you are referring to. Have you got the name wrong or are we talking about the restaurant on Bernard?

I could have sworn they had a location on the westside. I've been to the one downtown on many occasions so I am aware of that one. I thought there was a location up by Winners or something. Maybe it never got off the ground. :smt102

No the only other one i am aware of is in Nelson, you are thinking of someone else.

On the subject of closing businesses it seems that the owners of most of these units being put up have failed to fill them to 100% capacity, in fact in some cases it has been about 50% so it seems. Then when they do let out some units the businesses don't last, yet still we see more building going on and lots more land being advertised as prime commercial space.

When will the penny drop with these guys? Try filling the spaces you have created before you build more. Empty buildings do not do anyone any good and have a tendency to make an area look like it is in decline so not good for attracting more businesses.
