The layout of the whole thing is also stupid and I find it really hard to navigate the first time I drove through it. Gone through it 4 times now and still don't like it.
Coquitlam Center is BUSY. I went to visit some friends in Coquitlam 2 months ago and I was surprised how many ppl there were at the mall. People drive just as poorly but just sub in more white ppl. And that trail around the lake, wow that was just as amazingly busy. Though I must give it to the city of Coquitlam, they've done a good job.

Brentwood is one of those malls that looks great on rendering but when it came to reality, it is a total flop. Half the shops require people to walk outside (e.g. LL Bean). When the weather is shit, you have to walk long the edge of the mall or else you'll be exposed to the rain. Also, speaking of LL Bean, who the f*ck even shops there? I've passed by it maybe 3-4 times and there looks to be more staff than customers.
You know the mall is good when Uniqlo establishes a store there.
