There’s a revised name for the outlet shopping centre being built at Edmonton International Airport — and a new partner for original developer Ivanhoe Cambridge.

The project’s new name is Premium Outlet Collection — Edmonton International Airport. The partners behind it are now Ivanhoe Cambridge, which is based in Quebec, and U.S.-based Simon Property Group.

The facility, now with 428,000 square feet of leasable space, will open in the fall of 2017 with 100 stores, many never seen before in Alberta, the partners said in a joint new release Wednesday.

The outlet project was announced by Ivanhoe Cambridge in December 2013 as a 350,000 sq.-ft., fully enclosed facility called The Outlet Collection at EIA. It was to have more than 85 stores. In January 2015, more details emerged, including that the size had been bumped up to 415,000 sq.-ft. and the store count to 100.

Wednesday, Quebec-based Ivanhoe Cambridge announced it has teamed up on the project with Simon, a global leader in retail real estate.
