This retail is located outside and it is very easy to navigate since the arrangement of the retail stores is not complex. The streetcar track on Spadina helps people to identify the directions more easily (North ↔ South).

They have an ice rink in the mall. The purpose of the mall is not only for shopping but provide entertainment. The MOA is also a family friendly place.
