Place Desormeaux

Place Desormeaux is a small shopping mall located in Longueuil, Quebec, Canada. Its major tenants are Zellers and Super C, and to a lesser extent Pharmaprix. The mall is made of approximately 45 stores.

History

Place Desormeaux openned in 1971 with Bonimart, Steinberg's and Zellers as anchors.

Bonimart closed in 1991 . The space remained empty for the following 6 years. In 1997, Bonimart's former location was demolished and rebuilt with a complete new design to welcome the current Super C.

Steinberg's went bankrupt in 1992. The location in Place Desormeaux, unlike most Steinberg's outlets, was not sold and was closed instead. A small grocery chain Esposito took over the lease. Esposito in turn closed in 1996, opening the way for department store Winners to install itself in the mall. After operating for 10 years, Winners closed around late 2006/early 2007. The space currently has no tenant.

Zellers has been where it is since 1971.

Like other shopping centres, Place Desormeaux has gone to different renovations at various times of its history. However, it has never increase in size since its inception.

The mall also used to house one branch of the Longueuil public library.
