I hardly remember the layout anymore. Where was the old foodcourt?
Upstairs, actually not far from where it is now. Woodwards exit was pretty much where the Bay exit is upstairs, right next to the old theatre (where Sportchek is now). The foodcourt was along that wall towards the where the new foodcourt.
Speaking of Chinook...back in the day Saan, and the Met, both having lunch counters.
Woodwards food floor.
Sears was extended out on the lower floor...you could go up the escalator and find your self in the middle of the mall on the upper floor.
Brettons in the "new wing" (now Zellers).
The outrageously poorly planned parkade ramp just off McLeod.

McLeod Mall - Woolco and Safeway, with another Saan and other mom and pop stores...no longer a mall now of course, just Walmart and Rona.

Southcentre - Tops in Toys FTW.
The old theatre where Chapters used to be.

The Fish Creek Library...for years, even decades, the small half of it was supposed to be a theatre like the downtown library...never got finished and finally added it on to the regular floor plan.

Earls in Southport.

Black Swan used to be Gullivers.

Kmart at Southland and Elbow...Food City around the city, then the revival of it in the early 90's down at what is now Canyon Meadows theatre.

Toy City is now office Depot...Consumers was actually where the greek restaraunt is I think just north of there.

Longhorn Saloon, which turned to Grapes, which is now Chapters.

Curly's at Heritage and McLeod...Studio 82 when it was a theatre.
