East Point Shopping
Located on a series of prominent plateaus in East Saint John, on a commanding 80 acres, great care has been taken to design the area using its most visible asset - height - so it can be seen from several vantage points in the City. Three interconnecting levels, carefully landscaped, allow retailers high visibility and a dominant presence in this well-travelled retail area with easy access from all directions. As well, a massive 13 meter welcome sign marks its presence on Retail and Fashion Drive and a Sky Tracker light makes it easy to find.
East Point Shopping is a quality design with upscale storefronts. The retail space, composed of small to large size retail stores, big box to boutiques, will eventually encompass over 700,000 square feet including generous, well-lit parking areas enhanced by trees and grassy areas. Patrons will also be able to enjoy a meal and stay on-site while shopping. Anchored by the 100,000 square foot Home Depot building supply and renovation center and Indigo Books, Music and Life Store the development also includes Montana’s Cookhouse Family Restaurant and the first free-standing retail Starbucks outlet in New Brunswick. This is in addition to the Starbucks kiosk that is adjacent to the 20,000 square feet Indigo Books and Music Store, winner of the International Council Shopping Centers 2007 Design Award. This store has high end appeal and is one of only two stores in North America. Several fashion
retail stores including the first outlet in the Maritimes for Le
Chateau; Cotton Ginny; Fairweather; International Clothiers; Moores;
Randy River; Roots 73; Urban Planet, a fashion accessories and shoes
for teens store and Glamour Secrets, a pioneer in the development
of the one-stop beauty superstore, can all be found here at East
Point Shopping. On September 15, the new Christmas Discounters Store
will be opening on this site. The Hampton Inn and Suites Hotel by
Hilton - 118 room facility complete with a pool, hot tub and water
slide is also handily located. Got a comment or suggestion? ownwords@nbnet.nb.ca |

The purple violet (Viola cucullata) is a perennial which flowers from May through July.The flowers of the purple violet have been used in jams and syrups, and are supposed to have properties to soothe the digestive tract and suppress a cough. The flower was adopted as the New Brunswick floral emblem in 1936, at the request of the provincial Women’s Institute.
