Cityplace (Winnipeg)

Cityplace (Winnipeg)

Cityplace (formerly Eaton Place) is an office and retail complex situated in Downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba. It consists mainly of the former Eaton's company mail-order warehouse building that occupies the block bounded by Hargrave and Donald Streets, and Graham and St. Mary Avenues. The warehouse was designed by John Woodman, a Winnipeg architect, and constructed in 1916.

The main complex includes two levels of retail space, a food court, and seven levels of office space. It is connected by elevated skywalks to the Winnipeg Walkway System, acting as a hub connecting the Portage and Graham segments, with a link connecting the Convention Centre segment opened in 2010. Cityplace also operates several surface parking lots and parkades.

Eaton Place opened in 1979 as Downtown Winnipeg's first indoor shopping mall, after Eaton's closed down its catalogue and mail-order operations in 1976/77.

It capitalized on its location adjacent to the downtown Eaton's department store, which was then the largest and busiest store in the city, now demolished. The former Eaton's store site is now the city's new arena, the MTS Centre.
