Carrefour Laval (corporately styled as "CF Carrefour Laval") is a super regional mall located in Laval, Quebec, Canada at the intersection of the Laurentian Expressway (A-15) and Laval Expressway (A-440). At 115,478 m2 (1,242,990 sq ft), it is the largest enclosed mall in the Montreal area, and Quebec's largest mall operating on one floor.
Contents
Carrefour Laval is one of the four fashion centres in the Montreal area. The others are Fairview Pointe-Claire, Les Promenades Saint-Bruno, and Les Galeries d'Anjou.
Stores
The mall has four anchor stores: Hudson's Bay, Sears, Simons and Rona.
Various other stores, boutiques and restaurants are represented in the mall.
Since November 1, 2009, Carrefour Laval has required its food court tenants to use solid dinnerware and cutlery, which it provides, instead of the traditional foam food containers found in the vast majority of food courts.
Planning for a new mall (1969-1973)
Construction of the mall was announced on 27 February 1969 by Steinberg's and Eaton's. The consortium announced that a 150-store mall would be built on a 20,000,000-square-foot (1,900,000 m2) property next to the Laurentian Expressway, subject to the construction of the necessary infrastructure by the newly formed city of Laval.
The project had been delayed after a zoning bylaw proposed by mayor Jacques Tétreault that would effectively have given the Carrefour Laval consortium a monopoly over the development of the proposed downtown core of Laval was challenged by the opposition and by members of his own party, who supported the construction of a second mall in the immediate vicinity by the Oshawa Group. A zoning amendment proposed by opposition councillor Lucien Paiement (later mayor), which allowed the Oshawa Group to build its own mall was adopted. By then, Morgan's and Simpson's had joined the Carrefour Laval consortium. However, Morgan's dropped out, preferring instead to anchor an expansion of the existing Centre Laval, just 2.5 km (1.6 mi) away on the other side of Expressway 15.
