It is also known as an "indoor core connector" to the Hamilton Convention Centre/Ellen Fairclough Building), Art Gallery of Hamilton and FirstOntario Concert Hall across the street: all three downtown landmarks are connected to the mall by a skywalk that crosses over King to Jackson Square.
FirstOntario Centre (formerly Copps Coliseum), is a sports and entertainment arena with a capacity of up to 19,000 (depending on event type and configuration) on the corner of Bay Street North and York Boulevard.
A New York-style structure was built of fireproof reinforced concrete dressed in rug brick with white, glazed terracotta trim.
It has a seasonal schedule that runs weekends from May-to-October connecting Hamilton's downtown core to the waterfront and attractions that can be found there like HMCS Haida and the Parks Canada Discovery Centre.
Then it travels north along James Street and the Art District until it reaches the waterfront at Guise Street past the Leander Boat Club, Royal Hamilton Yacht Club, Hamilton Chamber of Commerce and the Harbour West Marina Complex.
The main stop and departure spot is at the Hamilton Waterfront Scoops ice cxream parlour.
There are a dozen stops along the way between Princess Point at the western-end of the route to the eastern-end, the site of HMCS Haida.
