Ivanhoé Cambridge, Harvard Developments and Forster Projects have joined forces to develop a 385,000-square-foot outlet mall in Winnipeg.
Targeting a spring 2017 opening, the Outlet Collection at Winnipeg will be developed on a 40-acre (16-hectare) site within the northwest quadrant of Kenaston Boulevard and Sterling Lyon Parkway as a further expansion of the Outlet Collection banner by Ivanhoé Cambridge, the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec’s real estate arm.
The mall will be the first pure outlet centre in Greater Winnipeg and will have more than 90 stores.
Ivanhoé Cambridge will undertake the development and leasing of the project and will assume management of the centre once it opens.
“We are thrilled to work alongside established real estate players to bring the Outlet Collection experience to Winnipeg, which promises to offer an unparalleled retail mix to local shoppers and tourists from neighbouring provinces and U.S. states,” says John Scott, senior vice-president, development, for Ivanhoé Cambridge. “With our first location opening in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont., in May and another location to open in Edmonton in 2016, Outlet Collection at Winnipeg reinforces our position as Canada’s leader in the outlet retail sector.”
