Market Mall is a shopping centre located in the Nutana Suburban Centre area on the east side of Saskatoon. Built in the 1960s as Saskatoon's first enclosed shopping centre, it has undergone four major expansions since the late 1970s and now houses approximately 90 stores and services, anchored by Zellers and Safeway. It also contains a 18-hole miniature golf course, Ticketmaster booth, and as of Fall 2006, a 6 bay City of Saskatoon Transit terminal. It is a major regional mall for the area, and is also frequently used by residents of the many seniors homes in the area; it is also located near two high schools.
An iconic feature of the mall is its two large facing skylights which provided natural light to the mall interior for much of its early history. One of the mall's expansions/renovations in the 1980s closed off the skylights, though the structures remain in place as a local landmark.
Market Mall is located on Preston Avenue on land bounded by Adelaide Street to the North, Louise Street to the South; Preston Ave South to the West, and McEown Avenue to the East.
A partial listing of a few retail outlets in Market Mall are as follows. These tenants are online with their locations as listed. The tenants in any given shopping mall are subject to change.[2]
Former anchor tenants have included Kmart, Canadian Tire and Stedmans (which at varying times also used the brandings Macleods and Gambles before the store was finally closed in the early 1990s). In the early 1990s the mall also hosted Electric Glide, a pay-per-visit arcade featuring laser tag.
