Original tenants included Eatons, The Bay, Woolco, Safeway and a twin theatre complex operated by Famous Players, this was the first twin cinema in Edmonton. Londonderry added an expansion in 1984 of 30 additional shops. Save-On-Foods opened in the former Eatons space on the lower floor while Winners opened up on the upper floor of the Eatons space. Army and Navy relocated its downtown store to the former location of Wal-Mart on the lower level and Sport Chek relocated its mall store to the upper shell left by Wal-Mart making it, at the time the largest Sport Chek store in Canada. Londonderry Mall has a spacious interior and a diverse mix of over 150 shops and services.
