Midtown Plaza

Midtown Plaza, High-rise building in downtown Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada

Midtown is a shopping mall in Saskatoon's Central Business District, built on the site of the city's former main railway station. It opened as a one-storey centre in 1970; by 1990 a second storey was added and the façade was rebuilt at a cost of CA$24 million to echo the 1900s station. The complex includes the 12-storey, 57 m Midtown Tower office block.

Midtown opened on July 30, 1970, with 51 stores on the site of Saskatoon's former main railway station, part of a 1960s inner-city redevelopment that also produced the Senator Sid Buckwold Bridge and TCU Place. Anchor Simpsons-Sears had opened in 1968; Eaton's traded until 1999, when Hudson's Bay moved in from 2nd Avenue and 23rd Street. A second storey and a facade echoing the 1900s station were added by 1990 at a cost of CA$24 million.

The mall's name recalls the former Midtown Plaza, and its 2019 food court wing is called Midtown Common. From 1993 to 2005 a statue of Saskatchewan-born hockey player Gordie Howe stood at the corner of 1st Avenue South and 20th Street East, later moved to the Credit Union Centre. The former Dominion grocery store housed a popular Eaton's-sponsored Christmas lights display before becoming a food court.

The building offers direct access to public transportation and features multiple parking levels for visitors. Interior walkways allow you to move through the space and reach neighboring buildings without going outside.

From 1993 to 2005 a statue of Saskatchewan-born hockey player Gordie Howe stood at the southwest corner of 1st Avenue South and 20th Street East; it was moved to the Credit Union Centre in 2005. The mall's 1990 second storey and façade were built to mimic the city's original 1900s railway station, on whose site the mall stands.
