    This is the first place that we always stopped at whenever we visited Saint John by a cruise ship. This is very close by to the cruise terminal. The exterior of the building was mostly made up of bricks, which looked nice. Some pubs were seen outside, but much of what to see was inside. The mall had two floors, and they were both not very big. If you were to walk around one level without stopping, you would be finished in a very, very short period of time. But what really grabbed my attention was the amount of decorations that was existent in here. There was a water fountain and tree in the center of the mall, some balloon-like light structures and a modeled airplane that hanged from the ceiling, and decorations that looked like books neatly placed on the shelf outside of the second floor library. All of that was quite appealing. Much of the stores here dealt with clothing, souvenirs, and gifts. They were quite pricey. They also had a luggage store and a mini mart. Those were pricey as well. Aside from the stores, they also had a museum (for a fee) and, located on the second floor, a library. Setting aside all of this, this mall also had some formal restaurants, which served pub food and/or seafood and steak. A small food court was also available, and that area served fried foods, coffee and pastries. How convenient for those who want to eat here. Okay, so the inside was appealing based on the decor, but what about the outside? Ahh, that was where the Waterfront Boardwalk came in. Outside the main building, it was a small walk that provided views of the water, as well as the cruise ship that you rode on. I enjoyed those views. The pubs were also located along the boardwalk as well. As I said before, this mall is very close by to the cruise ship terminal, as it was a short walk away. Alternatively, this mall could also be entered by an indoor pedestrian bridge from the Brunswick Square Shopping Center. I got a nice view of the street below as I walked from Market Square to Brunswick Square. Even though the shops here didn't appeal to me, the interior decor and waterfront views outside made my visit an enjoyable one. For this reason, I'm a fan. :)

    Saint John was our first major stop on exploring the maritime. So we came to check out the Market square, quite an interesting place. What can you expect...well a lot! They have the waterfront, a mini light house, a very nice mall with art, decorations, fountains inside...plus if you are lucky they do festivals there as well.

    It's not as fancy as you might see in some other cities, but it's home. Overall a nice place.

    A large indoor 4-floor mall with less than 10 stores open and a small, 4-5 restaurant food court…read more Not much here to see ...

    Whenever we visited Saint John by cruise ship, we always ended up walking in here just to kill the…read moretime. This was one of those places that isn't too far from the cruise terminal. From the outside of the building, it looked like the mall was big. But inside was a whole different story. This mall does have three floors, but they were all quite small. So small, that you could walk on one floor without stopping and be done with that level in an extremely short period of time. The rest of the building consisted of numerous office units. Didn't there used to be a TV station here? Hmm... The mall looked clean, but there weren't a lot of decorations. I did notice the high amount of mirrors that were positioned around the escalator and elevator areas. I wonder if that was suppose to be a decoration. Most of the stores here focused on clothing and gifts. Other stores included a book store, an electronics store, a pharmacy, and a place for home decorations. All of them were just okay, even though the home decoration store (Decor 8) was a little more appealing to us. But a lot of them were quite pricey. They also had restaurants that focused on smoothies, pizza, breakfast, and coffee. Separate from the restaurants, a food court was available which served fried foods, Chinese, health foods, sushi, and coffee. If one didn't feel like entering the mall from the outside, then that person could have utilized the indoor pedestrian bridges. Those bridges provided convenience for those who came from Market Square and the City Market, as they were connected to those buildings. Not only did those bridges made it easier for those (including myself) to cross from one building to another, but they also provided a view of the areas below them, which looked nice. We actually entered this mall from Market Square via one bridge, and exited in favor of City Market by another bridge. Very convenient, especially since you didn't have to wait to cross the street! Take in the views below and you've got an enjoyable experience! Overall, I didn't see anything unique about this mall (compared to Market Square), but it's okay for stopping by and venturing through. If you know what you're looking for here, then you'll probably enjoy it. Just don't expect to see a lot while you're here.
