CF Masonville Place (known locally simply as Masonville or Masonville Mall and formerly known as Masonville Place) is a major shopping mall in North London, Ontario. It is located at the southeast corner of Fanshawe Park Road and Richmond Street.

Masonville Place was constructed by the Cadillac Fairview Corporation Limited in 1985. It was the first multi-level shopping centre in London. It also had three major commercial tenants: Sears, Eaton's, and Loblaws. Loblaws, originally under the SuperStore Warehouse banner (used for large format Loblaw stores in the 1980s) opened on its own in late 1984, preceding the building of the rest of the mall.

Expansion

In 1991, Masonville expanded with 75 new stores and services including an indoor miniature golf course, which has since been removed, and replaced with more stores. A Zellers store was also built a few years later in 1994.

In October 1998, the Loblaws store closed and a new standalone Loblaws was opened on the northeast corner of Fanshawe Park Road and Richmond Street. This was around the same time the Eaton's store was closed due to bankruptcy, and was replaced with The Bay.

Today

Today, Masonville Place is a regional shopping centre with 190 stores and services. It also has a bus terminal for the London Transit Commission.

On October 29, 2013, Sears Canada announced that it would be closing its store at the mall and five other locations throughout Canada in a bid to reduce costs.[1]
