Renovation to include contemporary features and a giant glass sphere.
For almost 25 years the iconic clock tower of Erin
Mills Town Centre has towered over the growing Erin Mills neighbourhood of Mississauga.
Change is in the air as the shopping centre launches a renovation that will see
the clock tower disappear and be replaced by a giant glass sphere 283 feet
across.
The $100 million renovation will be the centre's fist since
opening in 1989 and is planned to coincide with its 25th anniversary. The
glass sphere will slice through the roof over the mall's central square where a
new infinity pool will be surrounded with seating and space for community
events.
The development plans to revitalize the current food court
and restaurants at the main entrance with the addition of a 54 foot high
entrance structure and an outdoor patio with views towards downtown Mississauga.
