The funny thing is that this mall was the result of “urban renewal” in 1969. The entire superblock that Lloyd D Jackson Square and the Hamilton City Centre currently occupy used to be a community of small Heritage buildings including delis, butcher shops, drug stores, clothiers, etc. All the buildings were expropriated by the city and torn down even though many of the building were heritage buildings. Forty years later there are still mixed feelings about this among those who remember the old downtown (or have read about it as I have).

So technically, this mall was a “start over”. Didn’t work so well.

There should be a map of the existing stores and other facilities available. The map in some of the aisles in Jackson Square could be available on the internet so people can find where they want to go and not stumble around at Jackson Square or here on this website, where I couldn’t find anything of help. It is so sad that when a website is posted, that all things are not considered. Some sites are sophisticated enough to help the general public and give the RIGHT informaton!!
Wake up administration office and help Hamilton a little bit if you want the shoppers to populate there.

Hamilton is a joke. Unforuntate considering its location and natural beauty that surronds it. Hamiltonions need to come together and make some noise for change. The city has the elements to be better

It’s sad what has become of the downtown core of Hamilton. The mall is a joke, and the rest of the area isn’t much better.
How about ripping down the whole core, except Gore park, and doing it over again. Couldn’t be any worse then it is.

I LOVE Jackson Square! It’s the best place to go when I want to catch a sale, go to the library, or watch a movie. The prices are much cheaper than other malls, the food court is very diverse. There are many renovations in the making currently, and I can’t wait to see it all finished.

I wish the homeless people played more musical instruments or at the very least cleaned up the streets for money. I’d give homeless people money if I thought they would do *something*, *anything* for it. Sitting on the street corner or following patrons around for handouts however I won’t respond to.
