History

edit

In December 2013, Ivanhoé Cambridge announced that they would be building an outlet mall, then-called "The Outlet Collection at EIA", near the Edmonton International Airport.[5] It would be 33,000 m2 (350,000 sq ft) in size with over 85 stores and was slated to open in fall 2016. In January 2015, it was announced the mall's size was increased to 38,600 m2 (415,000 sq ft) and contain 100 stores. In spring 2015, Simon Property Group announced plans for their own outlet mall in the city's west end at the corner of Anthony Henday Drive and Stony Plain Road.[6] However in January 2016, Simon Property Group's plans were cancelled after both companies reached a partnership deal to co-develop the mall at the airport.[6][7]

A groundbreaking ceremony was held in May 2015 with construction officially beginning in spring 2016.[8] The mall opened on May 2, 2018.[2]
