Richmond Centre (corporately styled as CF Richmond Centre and formerly known as Richmond Square) is a shopping mall in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada. Its street address is on No. 3 Rd, but it stretches as far west as Minoru Blvd and as far south as Granville Ave. Richmond City Hall is immediately south of the mall. History Richmond Centre mall began as Richmond Square Shopping Centre, which was built in 1980 on part of the old Brighouse/Minoru Racetrack. Two years later, in 1980, Hudson's Bay Company announced plans for their store to be built adjacent to Richmond Square. The two locations acted as separate shopping centres until 1989, when they amalgamated into one mall known today as Richmond Centre. In 2012, A new $30M food court (The Dining Terrace) Opened where the former Famous Players movie theatre occupied. It features 18 different dining options. The old food court was replaced with retail space. Another retailer, Express (closed 2018) opened in the bottom floor of the former movie theatre. After its closure, Japanese retailer UNIQLO opened in its former space. In 2019, a redevelopment proposal was approved to create 12 new mid rise buildings. The former Sears, south parkade and some parking space will be demolished for the construction of these buildings. Layout Richmond Centre, similar to its closest rival mall Lansdowne Centre, was mostly built on a single level owing to the abundance of unoccupied land in Richmond at the time of its construction. This means most of the shopping centre can be reached without the need of escalators or elevators. The only exception is Hudson's Bay, which has a second level, and the "Dining Terrace" food court. The mall is laid out in a large rectangle. A galleria runs down the middle of the mall, splitting it into two parts. The north end is anchored by Hudson's Bay. The south end is anchored by sports retailer Sport Chek. Sears held the south end anchor but went out of business on February 28, 2015. The former Sears space, spanning over two floors, is not currently occupied by any tenant but is used by mall management. Stores Richmond Centre is managed by Cadillac Fairview. The shopping mall has 165 retail stores with their main retail anchors being Hudson’s Bay, H&M, Sport Chek, Zara, Aritzia, Sephora, Uniqlo, Lego, Lululemon, Apple, Cactus Club Café, Muji, Nike, and White Spot.
