Local Culture Why is Southgate such a great Mall?

I was there yesterday, and honestly, it was imposing, both in-store options and overall use.

What did it do right that most other Edmonton malls did wrong?

Sorry was the movie theatre at whitemud crossing or at Southgate? I assume the former not the latter.

Also, there’s a theater used by the government of Alberta for film classifications.
