I have a goal for this year: visit all the malls. According to wikipedia There are only about 57 in Toronto, and 10 of them are in the underground PATH system.

You might ask: Why do this? The answer is simple - I am a completionist. There have been a few times in my life where some dumb idea gets into my head and I just have to do it.

We are giving the malls a rating based on certain criteria: Stores, Structure, Community, and Liminalness. Each mall so far has been interesting and different in its own way. There will be a longer post about this journey later, but so far (as of April 18th), we have visited the following malls:
