Cityplace (Winnipeg)

Cityplace (formerly Eaton Place) is a nine-storey office and retail complex[1] situated in Downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

[1] It consists mainly of the former Eaton's company Catalogue & Mail Order building that occupies the block bounded by Hargrave and Donald Streets, and Graham and St. Mary Avenues.

[7] In December 1980, the city's first multiplex movie theatre, Cineplex 7, opened on the second floor of Eaton Place.

[10] In 2010, construction completed in linking Cityplace to the adjacent Delta Hotel and Convention Centre through the Winnipeg Walkway System.

[12] Since late 2019, there have been numerous rumours that the Manitoba government, under Premier Brian Pallister, would seek to sell of the mall to private investors.

[13] The Manitoba Liquor Mart closed its store in the mall in January 2020 and moved it to the second floor of True North Square across the street.

The parlor is operated as a partnership with Manitoba Liqour & Lotteries, with its gaming revenues helping to subsidize True North's mortgage on Canada Life Centre.

[16][17][18] In October 2017, the AMC filed a lawsuit against the Manitoba government, alleging that it was in violation of an agreement ratified in 2000 obligating that five new First Nations casinos must be built in Manitoba before commercial gaming can be expanded in the province, and alleging that the government was actively preventing them from having access to the Winnipeg market.
