We used to do most of our Christmas shopping there years ago, when we lived in Scarborough. Great mall, clean, good food court, lots of variety. Haven't been there in years, since we moved away. Miss it a lot.
I miss the old layout from the 90's especially in '96. Baskin Robbins used to be right across Compucentre that had 3 tv's showcasing the N64 and Playstation and Sega Saturn games.
There used to be an Arcade on the far right corner of the food court where I think "Bourbon chicken" is right now
Ahhh so many memories of STC from when I lived in Scarborough as a kid...I still go to the mall every few months but it just seems so ghetto now even though they're renovating.
Great video! It's refreshing to see older footage of shopping malls. I remember being in Scarborough Town Centre about 5 years ago, I lived in Owen Sound at the time and I didn't make it to Toronto nearly as often as I wanted to. I love Toronto. I sometimes think they should leave the older architecture and simply maintain it and keep it as close to the original design as possible. Sure, it would scream 70's, 80's, early 90's, but that's cool! Take me back to those years! I wanna go back!
@STLUCIANIDOL91 i remember this place when i was small my family bring me here 1991 and i play arcade now i am grown man coming back from china i dont like this area so much blacks they rob me in 2005, why they rob me? what i do them? now it is 2010 i am 22 year old man, black man came up to me again and robbed me, why?
lol, i remeber the arcade and the old theatre near the entrance off the subway. i think the last movie i watched at that theatre was waterboy with adam sandler.
Great video! Funny how many things haven't changed in the mall..Bata, A&W, Manchu Wok, Peoples,Bulk Barn and the Eatons is now Sears. The theater got pulled out and now sits on the outside of the mall. BTW, there were plenty of mall gangsters in those days, the arcade was the place to buy or sell anything...people got robbed daily in the RT overpass and TTC platforms.
I thought Sears moved into the Eaton space and Walmart took the old Sears space...
AND...If the bay DID take the Eaton's store, why didn't they just stay where they were in hte mall and open up a Zellers before Wal mart had the chance to snatch up the space???
I brought the camcorder and my dad insisted to take some video at the mall so that he could show the video to my relatives in Hong Kong about what was shopping mall in Canada looked like...and now the video becomes historic video
No I didn't use Firewire at all...I converted the original VHS-C video tape (with regular VHS video recorder thru VHS-c to VHS adaptor)to DVD (with DVD recorder)...then I converted the video from DVD to DivX format (with my computer) before uploaded to YouTube
