PC and Richmond Centre are not even close to each other. Do you mean the Oakridge Apple store?

The Richmond Center rebrand is like 10x better than what Metrotown will have.
Thats why its there

Everyone thinks metrotown is so great, but seriously its just a giant mall.

There is actually very little space available at Metrotown these days, so I'm sure Apple would have needed to wait several months, or years, before something fitting their needs came up.

I'm a Burnaby guy, so call me biased, but there's no way Richmond Centre will ever get the same traffic as Metrotown despite the re-brand. Metrotown is connected by Skytrain so it gets traffic from the west and the east (e.g. Surrey) Richmond Centre is connected to Canada Line now, but it still doesn't have major tennants like Zara and Forever 21.

NEW RETAILERS

Forever 21, Sephora and Teopia are coming to Richmond Centre!
A phenomenon in the fashion world, Forever 21 is the source for the most current fashions at the greatest value. Sephora brands themselves as the world's premier beauty destination. They feature over 200 classic and emerging brands across a broad range of product categories including skincare, colour, fragrance, bath & body, smilecare and hair care. Teopia is the fastest growing loose leaf tea company in Canada. They offer high quality, delicious tea as well as a wealth of knowledge. Teopia sells over 100 varieties of premium loose leaf tea.

Exactly. Even on its busiest days Richmond Centre doesn't get half the traffic that Metrotown gets.

I'm not sure why anyone would call Metrotown "just a giant mall" as some sort of detraction. I mean, what's Richmond Centre? Just a medium-sized mall?

Not that I shop at Forever 21, but the one at Metrotown is 2 floors. All Metrotown needs is an H&M and it basically has all of the major chains and stores under one roof. The place will still remain a zoo on weekends.

Whichever mall gets UNIQLO to come here, that's the best mall.

if Metro got an Apple store it would be 10 times busier than PC every day.
