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. :) read more
