Tres bien

Good selection of stores. Accessibility is poor, particularly west of 116 street, especially for a shopping centre in such a densely populated area. Extremely narrow sidewalk beside London Drugs, and other narrow spots where two people carrying shopping bags (let alone using mobility devices - walker, stroller, wheelchair etc) cannot pass each other, including outside Canada Post and Loblaws City Market, a major grocery store for the area. Also not enough walkways and marked crosswalks throughout the parking lot.

Bravo to the management of the Unity square. What this, previously lovely and pleasant square has turned into is definitely a shame for both the management and the city. I am a neighbor and the proximity and variety of shops, as well as the pleasant atmosphere were not my everyday choice not so long ago. No, the management has managed to turn this place into an unpleasant, sometimes dangerous place. First, when you go shopping at City Market or Winers upstairs, you are greeted from the outside at the entrance and inside in the lobby, by drunk, drugged and aggressive people. If you enter City Market with the intention of making a purchase, you always expect some shouting, an argument, because the same people entered there with the intention of stealing something. Then you go up to Winers, use the elevator, because the escalators never work, and when they get there they force some guy, who put something in his bag and had no intention of paying. I then pick up my grandchildren so they don't see it and go across the street to the TD Bank with the intention of withdrawing some cash, when two people in front of it say "give me a change...". Okay, I don't dare go to the ATM. I say let's go. My intention is to go to Shoppers with the kids, when another guy sits on the bench in front of him, taking off his pants and doing a big defecation. I quickly run to Shoppers, and inside there's an argument between a woman and a security guard. I go outside, hurrying so that my confused grandchildren don't experience any trauma. I pass by the Dollarama, and there are things scattered around, outside, sitting and lying on the floor. One woman says to me "what are you looking at"... I see it's time to hurry to London Drugs, but first I need to pass the benches in front of Staples, where they are also wrapped in blankets, probably drugged and with murderous looks, I rush to the targeted London Drugs, and there's a girl and a boy sitting in front of them and "change, please change". The only oasis where there are no aggressive, drunk, drugged people for now is Art of Cake. I escape there and I'm safe. Like some safe oasis on a dangerous battlefield. The Square has changed beyond recognition. I know that you can't influence everything, but apart from the city's lack of concern for the safety of its citizens, there is definitely a problem with the managed square. It's a shame, it used to be a nice place to walk and shop, and it's so close to me, but apparently everything nice is short-lived.

The businesses need to keep on top of cleaning up the puke from the sidewalks. From the edge of brewery district past the pet land all the way to 116st ALWAYS has multiple puke piles. At this point there needs to be someone cleaning it up daily. Every 10 to 20 steps there's puke. You have to keep an eye on the ground while walking but also try to keep an eye on the sketch heads walking around. I don't know why this particular stretch of buildings always has puke when the stores across 116st don't when there's a lot more addicts hanging out there.

Unity Square is a wonderful area to shop, dine, and hangout in. It captures every need from grocery store to shopping for clothing or shoes! Wonderful restaurants and unique shops!! It's my go to spot for a quick in and out!

Great area, but ruined by a few things.
1) The traffic congestion caused by the construction on 116th Street and 104 Ave is a nightmare for the parking lot.
There needs to be substantially better traffic control. There should also be a police presence for the amount of crazy drivers not obeying traffic law in the parking lot.

2) the amount of homeless people that panhandle outside of the businesses is completely out of control. The London Drugs and RBC are constantly inundated by undesirables!

Property Owners need to take this seriously and partner with the city and EPS on a solution.

I avoid coming here at all costs.

Love the underground parking. This is a nice concept. Way nicer than south common; makes south common look like a dump. This shopping complex reminds me of Toronto. I hope this can be modeled elsewhere in the city.
