'''Carrefour Angrignon''' is a [[Canada|Canadian]] [[shopping center|shopping centre]] in the [[Montreal]] borough of [[LaSalle, Quebec|LaSalle]] in [[Quebec]]. Popular stores include [[Sears Canada|Sears]], [[Zellers]], [[Bureau en Gros|Staples]], [[Sears Canada#Sears Whole Home and Sears.ca|Sears Home]], [[Best Buy]], [[Maxi (supermarket)|Maxi]] and [[Famous Players]]. There is also a [[food court]], located between Sears and [[Famous Players]]. Free outdoor customer parking is provided. Built in 1986, it is located on Newman Boulevard, at the intersection with Angrignon Boulevard. Because of its relatively young age, Carrefour Angrignon has more original [[Anchor store|anchor]]s left than any shopping mall in Montreal. Of the five anchors from 1986, three are still in the mall.
Carrefour Angrignon is [[Westcliff (company)|Westcliff]]'s sole enclosed mall in the [[island of Montreal]] as well as the largest mall among all of its properties.
==Stores==
In addition to the stores mentioned above, '''Carrefour Angrignon''' has many different stores that sell a particular kind of merchandise. It has quite a few women's fashion boutiques, some of these being '''Limité''', '''Marie-Claire''', '''Le Château''' and '''Sirens'''. This mall also has jewellery/accessory stores such as '''Ardène''', gift/card shops such as '''Hallmark''' and '''Carlton''', a dollar store and a decorated pet shop called '''Safari''', where there are many sorts of animals, from "standard" pets (e.g. cats, dogs, fish, etc.) to more unusual ones (e.g. ferrets, degus, scorpions).
==History==
Anchors from its debut in 1986 until 1991 were Sears, Zellers, Maxi, [[Eaton's]] and [[J. Pascal's Hardware and Furniture|Pascal's]].
The mall underwent changes in 1991, as the former Pascal's store became a car lot for a one year period (Rallye Honda Lasalle) prior to being split in two to became a movie theatre. Cine Entreprise built the theatre before Cine Entreprise was itself sold to [[Famous Players]]. By 1995, Famous Players and [[Future Shop]] occupied the former Cine Entreprise space. After a succession of ownership changes the movie theatre is now owned by Cineplex.
Eaton's closed in 1998, just one year before the whole chain went out of business. Eaton's former space is occupied by [[Sears Canada#Sears Whole Home and Sears.ca|Sears Home]], [[Bureau en Gros]] and [[Sports Experts|Sports Experts/Atmosphere]] since the early 2000s.
Future Shop moved at a new standalone location in 2004; the old store gets demolished shortly thereafter and rebuilt as a [[Best Buy]] store. Fortune Cinemas replaced the Famous Players location in 2006, only to be repurchased by Cineplex a few years later.
The [[Cumberland Drugs]] chain, which replaced Kanes Super Drug Mart in 1990, became an [[Proxim (pharmacy)|Essaim]] in 1997, changing to the current [[Pharmaprix]] by 2005.
Originally in 2006, Maxi was supposed to close down at the mall because of a nearby [[Loblaws]] supermarket (one that originated as a [[Dominion Stores]] at the defunct [[Centre Le Cavalier]] shopping centre nearby and later as [[Provigo]], [[Héritage]] & [[Maxi (supermarket)|Maxi]]), but Maxi parent [[Loblaws Inc.]] has since reversed this decision and Maxi still remains open as of this day.
