Questions and answers

Why is it called Vaughan Mills?

The Mills Corporation used “Mills” at the end of its Landmark mall names.

Were the original mills on this site?

No. The name also recalls a saw mill and later a grist mill by the Humber River in the 1830s, far from the present mall.

How was the food court renovation planned around shoppers?

CMV Architects designed the renovation to reduce disruption to customers.
