Brunswick Square — Local services in Saint John

A central and very important location, this once beautiful mall has been poorly managed and unsupported by its owner's for years. While so many others have been investing in their properties and improving our city centre, not Brunswick Square (they spent millions last decade on putting red brick on the outside facade and installing three sets of doors at the entryway, making sense to no one). Apparently under new ownership, the new owners would need to spend tens of millions to bring this facility back to decency. It's got a great 1960s design, a very cool glass elevator, glass ceiling atrium, and a once-great hotel that is also falling apart. I hope the new owners can bring this place back.

Prices are way too high for a dollar store as a matter of fact I challenge you to find an item that only cost one dollar. Lady is incredibly rude and if you buy soda from her she makes sure she gets that extra one cent above a dollar, especially if you buy a few. The guy on Germain street runs a much better store, better prices, selection and he’s super friendly. Also only charges one dollar for cans of pop even if you buy 10, but the lady in Brunswick Sq would insist on getting that extra 10 cents.

So avoid Brunswick Sq $$ store in favour of our friendly shop keeper...

Was told by staff that I was not allowed to take any photos or videos of the mall. It was so strange, I've never seen that happen before. I was excited to show this mall to my friends back home but I guess they don't want that? It's weird, it looks like an empty, dying mall but they don't want the publicity to bring people in(?).

The staff member who scolded me also didn't look like staff. He wasn't wearing anything that looked like a uniform or a work outfit, so we thought maybe he was just some crazy person, but then on our way out, we did see a small signage that did say that there is no photo or video allowed in the mall (they really should make it...
