Nobody has moved in to the building since, I drive past every day. Just boards over windows of a gutted building. I've accepted that an arsonist will likely burn it down before another business moves in.  Makes me sad 😔 imagine not having a sev nearby as a kid. Partially dethawed freezies in a cup will be a poor substitute Is that the one on the corner of princess and Willam?

No, William and Isabel but funny enough I googled Pincess and William out of curiosity and of course just got a bunch of pictures of the royals and nothing to do with this topic

There is one convenience store I pass often, Westhome Foods on Wellington Ave just East of Arlington, they had their windows smashed two or three times this summer before finally installing metal shutters. Many corner stores must lock their doors and force customers to buzz in. Rough out here for people selling chips and cigarettes. Angry health-nuts are surely to blame!

The plan wasn't to move the food court to be closer to the new theatre. The plan was to expand it north/northwest, using the space from the old theatre. In this picture, green is the existing layout and pink is the proposed layout (the old theatre is essentially under the "C" in Food Court. Â
