The Last Days of Lincoln Fields Mall

Komatsu excavators are coming for Lincoln Fields Mall, or Lincoln Fields Shopping Centre, or Lincoln Heights Galleria as I'll always call it because that was its name when I worked there. CBC story. You may recall that the Wendy's burned down a couple of months ago. It was never the best shopping centre, but it was the only one I've ever seen where, for a while in the Eighties, you could buy contraband Cypriot antiquities. See here for an article about the origins of the building. D.
