The mall was sold to First Capital Realty in 2002.
Royal Bank moved to a new standalone location near the mall in 2008 and the mall's northern half was demolished and was replaced entirely with glass. Metro Plus replaced the former Canadian Tire store in December 2008.
Côte Saint-Luc
Cavendish Mall
Cavendish Mall is an indoor shopping centre in Côte Saint-Luc, Quebec, Canada. It includes a food court, multiplex movie theatre and a medical clinic: the CLSC Rene Cassin. A small highrise office-building is adjoined to the mall's southern half. Redeveloped in 2011, the mall was reduced to almost half its original size.David Cronenberg's 1977 film Rabid features scenes shot in the mall.
The mall experienced declining patronage over the past decade due to an aging population and limited access by car because of the city's failure to extend Cavendish Boulevard. Another serious blow was the closing of its two main anchors: Eaton's and Canadian Tire. Other notable closures included Caplan Duval, The Source, Gap, Consumers Distributing, Music World, Steinberg's, Miracle Mart, Staples and restaurants: Pumpernicks, Cattleman's and Katerina's. With the southern half of the mall vacant it had been considered a dead mall throughout the 2000s. In 2010, a large portion of the mall was demolished to make way for a new residential development.

Extensive reconstruction was done in the old Caplan Duval site, where the CLSC Rene Cassin is now located. The former section of the demolished mall underwent construction of roads and sidewalks along with newly built townhouses and semi-detached homes. This included the sale of 39 lots for single-family homes.
Côte Saint-Luc
Centre commercial Côte Saint-Luc is a small indoor shopping mall in Côte Saint-Luc, Quebec, Canada. Built in 1956 by Ivanhoe, it is now operated by First Capital Realty. The mall once served as Ivanhoe's head office.The first anchors of the mall were a Steinberg & Zellers. Prohome eventually took place of the Zellers store in 1987. Steinberg went bankrupt in 1992, and the store was sold to The Oshawa Group as an IGA store. Prohome closed in 1997, and Rona Le Quincallier took its place. That store closed in 2005. A Blockbuster store opened in the late 1990s, and closed in 2011. Jean Coutu, which relocated within the mall, took part of the space, and a Caplan Duval opened in part of the former Rona space in 2010. Also, in the late 2000s, IGA's store was remodelled by counting its exterior. Since its inception, the mall has always had only two major anchors; the current ones are IGA & Jean Coutu.
Decarie Square
Decarie Square is a three-story indoor shopping mall, with two floors of retail shopping and one floor of office space, located on the outskirt of Côte Saint-Luc, a city in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.The mall was constructed in 1977 at a cost of over $20 million, under the ownership of Oshawa Group. Going back as far back as the mid 1980s, it has been described as a white elephant due its extremely high vacancy rate and low shopper traffic. Even today, much space in the mall remains empty with for renting signs plastered on vacant shop windows.
The mall includes the chain stores Winners, HomeSense, Les Ailes de la Mode, Dollarama, Rubino and various independent discount and service shops. A second-run movie theatre, a restaurant, fitness gym and two video lottery gambling establishments are also situated within the mall. Government service offices of the SAAQ automobile licence bureau, Saint-Laurent Local Employment Center and Service Canada employment insurance center are also found within the mall, as well as the Decarie Medical Centre. The third floor is exclusively for rental office space.
By 2011, in an effort to re-purpose much of the vacant shopping space into a more profitable venture, the mall owner, Canpro Investments Ltd., moved ahead with a project to convert more than a fifth of the 486,000 square foot mall's retail space into a medical centre with room for doctors' offices. The construction and renovation cost was estimated at the time between $10-million to $15-million and was started before any interested parties came forward or signed any leases; in essence a built-it-and-they-will-come strategy. The late David Azrieli, former head of Canpro, was quoted as saying "I'm willing to sign off that by August 2012 it will be ready and occupied." After a slow start, by 2017, the medical center had over 20 tenants with 30,000 square feet still available to lease. The space currently includes a walk in clinic, various specialists and doctor's offices.
Dollard-des-Ormeaux
Dorval
Jardins Dorval
Les Jardins Dorval is a shopping mall in the suburb of Dorval, in Montreal, Quebec, located on Dorval Avenue near Autoroute 20.

Jardins Dorval was built in 1954 by the Ivanhoe Corporation which remained its owner and manager until 2000. It is currently managed by CentreCorp Management Services Ltd. Anchor stores are Walmart, Hudson's Bay and Maxi.Les Jardins Dorval was originally built as a large L-shaped strip mall which opened in 1954 under the name "Dorval Gardens" with 35 stores. Anchor stores in 1954 were Morgan's department store and Steinberg's supermarket. Steinberg's and most of the original 35 tenants opened on April 7. A minority of tenants opened at slightly later dates including Morgan's which inaugurated on April 29.
Morgan's added a second floor to its store on August 28, 1961. The Morgan's store was destroyed by a major fire in April 1969 despite efforts by firemen from the cities of Dorval, Lachine, Lasalle, Pointe-Claire and Dollard-des-Ormeaux to save the store. It was rebuilt afterwards and reopened in March 1970 after occupying a temporary location on Dorval Avenue during the reconstruction. It was rebranded as The Bay on June 19, 1972.
In the 1970s, Les Jardins Dorval was surrounded with glass. In 1985, the mall was expanded into its current layout, doubling its number of stores: the original parts of the mall correspond to what is to the south or west of the enclosed walkway, including the spaces currently occupied by Maxi and Hudson's Bay; areas to the east or north of the walkway were added. These additions included a Pascal hardware store, which relocated from a nearby strip mall.
The Pascal store was closed and emptied in 1991, before reopening as Zellers on October 8, 1992. Zellers closed its doors on January 22, 2012. Walmart assumed the lease and remodelled the store before opening it to the public in September 2012. This location was not one of the 39 Zellers stores that Walmart Canada acquired from Target Canada at a similar time.
In mid-1992, the Steinberg's supermarket became a Provigo despite the presence at the time of another grocery store with the same banner in the adjacent strip mall. By late 1992, the Provigo at Jardins Dorval had been rebranded to its sister chain Maxi which remains to this day.
A Dollarama operated for a number of years before closing in late 2009. After a one-year absence, Dollarama returned to the mall in the space of Pharmaprix which itself has relocated to Dollarama's former space.
Sports Experts returned to the mall, opening November 1, 2012 and occupying the same space it did in the 2000s.

Horizon was succeeded by Eaton's Bargain in 1979 and the original Zellers store in the mall closed in 1980. The latter was substituted by Rossy in 1981, while Eaton's Bargain closed in 1982. After an absence of 3 years, Zellers returned to the mall in 1983, this time as an anchor store, assuming the lease of the former Eaton's Bargain store. The new Zellers was slightly bigger than the Horizon/Eaton's store it replaced; coincidentally its Family Restaurant stood on a portion of the emplacement of the old Zellers that closed in 1980.
In the 1980s, Woolworth was losing ground in Quebec and the store in the mall was shut down. Its space has since been subdivided.

Woolworth, which had survived the waves of closures of Woolworth stores in the 1980s, finally succumbed in 1994 when the chain folded in the country. Rossy replaced Woolworth.
When Loblaws opened a new Loblaws location south of the mall, the Maxi supermarket was closed and the space was taken by Bureau en Gros. Some years later, a Casa Grecque restaurant opened in a small part of the Bureau en Gros.

Initially the mall was built as a 2 store unit with a Fina service centre outparcel ; the mall was added shortly after with a section going from the end of Miracle Mart towards Gagné street. In the early 1980s, the mall was extended towards the Steinberg store. There was an attempt in 1988 to modernize the mall due to competition from other malls. This included a new entrance facing Champlain leading to an attempt at creating a food court. Around this time the former Greenberg space became Géant des Aubaines

In the early 2000s, Hart replaced the GoCart track. Somewhat around the mid/late-2000s, the Metro store was converted as a Metro Plus. In May 2010, Metro Plus was converted to Super C and Pharmaprix was relocated to a standalone building, joining the McDonald's, Tim Hortons & SAQ buildings. Since then, the mall has started to experience such a decline, making Place LaSalle a dead mall due to increased competition up against larger rival Carrefour Angrignon & smaller rival Place Newman. To ensure its death, lease renewals were refused by management, in favour of dividing the land between condominiums and the more profitable outdoor mall concept. In mid-October 2011, a National Bank of Canada opened next to the SAQ. Place LaSalle is currently under heavy renovation, but is still open. The new mall should open in Winter.
In 2011, Arcade Fire filmed parts of their music video for 'Sprawl II' inside Place LaSalle and its parking lot.
