Previous Anchors
The Pen Centre originally was an outdoor mall, eventually enclosed and expanded several times. The original anchors were Miracle Mart department store, Miracle Food Mart, Sears and Zellers. The Miracle Food Mart closed and Zehrs was added to the mall. Expansions added Eatons and the cinemas. Miracle Mart department store was sold to Robinson's which in turn became The Bay. When Eaton's went bankrupt the space was subdivided into Winners, A Buck or Two, EB Games, Mappins Jewellers, Sport Chek and Old Navy.

Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or anchors:
“There was a deserted log camp here, apparently used the previous winter, with its “hovel” or barn for cattle.... It was a simple and strong fort erected against the cold, and suggested what valiant trencher work had been done there.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The primary function of myth is to validate an existing social order. Myth enshrines conservative social values, raising tradition on a pedestal. It expresses and confirms, rather than explains or questions, the sources of cultural attitudes and values.... Because myth anchors the present in the past it is a sociological charter for a future society which is an exact replica of the present one.”
—Ann Oakley (b. 1944)
