Highfield Square, also known as Highfield Square Shopping Centre, was a shopping centre located in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. Highfield Square was owned and operated by Crombie REIT before being sold to the city of Moncton.

History

After the mall closed its movie theatres in the 1970s, it converted the area into a large food court with many restaurants, such as Pizza Delight, A&W, Deluxe, Tim Hortons, and Ed's Sub. The mall mascot was Hifie the Bear.

Future

The property is currently closed down and the city is preparing to demolish and build an entertainment complex. The location stills operates as a major transfer hub for Codiac Transpo.
