Bridlewood Mall is a shopping centre located in Scarborough, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, at 2900 Warden Avenue.^[1]

History

Bridlewood Mall was built in 1975 and redeveloped in 1998/1999. The mall began with four big-box store anchors: Towers,^[2] Kmart, Food City, and A&P Canada. Towers was bought by Zellers in 1990 and the store was closed in 1991. Zellers went on liquidation on December 26, 2012. A Target store was supposed to open at the former Zellers store (it was a small store, and it was said that it would get expanded in size) but construction got delayed since Target closed all their stores in April 2015.
