History
Seaway Mall opened on April 23, 1975 and was once a 60 store shopping centre anchored by Woolco, K-Mart and Miracle Food Mart with a two-screen cinema. It expanded in 1989 with another 60 stores including the Sears department store.
In the late 1990s the mall expanded again with the Cineplex cinemas becoming a seven-screen theatre and the redevelopment of the former Miracle Mart Store. Wal-Mart took over all Woolco stores in Canada and K-Mart converted to Zellers.
Throughout 2006 and 2007, a new format Zellers store opened in the former Wal-Mart location and the former Zellers store was redeveloped to include a new Winners, a new large format Shoppers Drug Mart and others. Target replaced Zellers in 2013.
