History

Opened in 1975, The Seaway Mall is Welland's oldest enclosed mall. The mall originally featured two main department stores: Woolco and K-Mart.[3] The main department attraction to The Seaway Mall has changed over the years from Woolco, to Wal-Mart, followed by Zellers, and eventually Target.[4] However, in early January 2015, Target Canada decided it would be ending Canadian operations closing all stores in Canada.[5] When Target ends operations in April 2015 there will be a vacancy of the largest department section in The Seaway Mall. Sears also closed in August 2015.
