Bayshore Shopping Centre is a major shopping mall located in the Nepean district of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The mall is one of the busiest in the National Capital Region as it attracts almost 8 million visitors per year from across the city and the surrounding region. It is the second largest shopping mall in the National Capital Region. It is anchored by Hudson's Bay, a combined Winners/HomeSense store and Walmart Supercentre. Construction and renovations First phase (1973–1987) When the mall originally opened in 1973, it consisted of two floors. Its anchors consisted of Steinberg, Miracle Mart, The Bay and Eaton's. Miracle Mart was located on the floor above Steinberg's. In 1982, The Bay expanded from 123,000 to 181,000 square feet with the addition of a third floor. In the mid 1980s, the mall underwent an extensive renovation, including the addition of a third storey, upgraded passenger lift, and an escalator going directly from the ground floor to the top level. The colour scheme was also changed to a green and tan marble design. The original wrought-iron and wood railings were replaced by glass panels. The new design featured large peaked glass panels as the ceiling. Another level was added to the exterior parkade as well. The third floor opened on September 14, 1987. Overall, 65 stores were added, bringing the total number of stores to 165 in the mall. The four anchors were still the same from 1973 although Miracle Mart had been renamed to M at that point. Second phase (1987–2012) The supermarket at Bayshore was rebranded to Loblaw's Your Independent Grocer banner, effective March 14, 1992, due to Steinberg's decision in January 1992 to exit the Eastern Ontario market. By 1994, the major tenants had slightly changed at the 760,000 square foot three-level regional mall that was now anchored by Eaton's, The Bay and Zellers. Following the closure of Eaton's in 1999, Zellers moved to the space in 2000, using two of the three floors of the defunct retailer. Les Ailes de la Mode opened in August 2001 its first store outside of Quebec in Zellers' former location (previously Steinberg's). Following the 2003 closure of Les Ailes de la Mode, the resulting vacant space on the south side of the first and second levels was reconstructed into two new areas. In the first level, the former corridor was closed and a new corridor and mall entrance created to
