Hazelton Lanes is a shopping mall in Toronto, Canada. It is located in the Yorkville neighbourhood, along Avenue Road, north of Bloor Street. It is currently being redeveloped and renamed Yorkville Village.
Hazelton Lanes opened in 1976 with 60,000 square feet (5,600 m2) of retail space. It was positioned as a luxury shopping centre and attracted some prestigious retailers. It underwent an expansion that tripled its size in 1988/1989. Hazelton Lanes began to experience difficult times in the early 1990s with the recession that gripped Toronto and much of Canada. Many of the upscale stores in Hazelton Lanes closed their doors, and some of them moved to the Mink Mile along Bloor Street. Brick-work on parts of the complex's exterior fell into disrepair.
The complex was bought by First Capital Realty in 2011. The corporation is spending CA$100 million to redevelop the mall into "Yorkville Village". The redevelopment will add 5,000 square feet (460 m2) to the existing 210,000 square feet (20,000 m2) of space, and replace all mechanical systems. The rebuild will add an Equinox Fitness on the second level. Along the Avenue Road frontage, a new double-height glass facade is being added. The mall will also add an entrance from Yorkville Avenue.[1]
