WEM has over 800 stores/services, 6 of which are major department stores (The Bay, The Brick Warehouse, London Drugs, Old Navy, Sears, and Zellers). There are 26 theatres (some Cineplex Odeon, some Famous Players) and 110 restauraunts (many duplicates - there are 3 McDonald's'). There are three 'Theme Streets', Bourbon Street (New Orleans theme), Europa Boulevard (European theme), and a third whose name I don't know yet which has an Asian theme (most of the shops hadn't opened when I last went, it seems supported mainly by T&T Supermarket). The Mall contains the world's largest indoor amusement park Galaxyland (formerly Fantasyland, until Disney found out), an NHL size arena, the world's largest indoor wave pool Blue Thunder in the 2 hectare World Waterpark; and a 210-yard all-season driving range. On display are a replica set of the British crown jewels from William I to George VI, a Ming dynasty Chinese pagoda, and 7 porcelain vases from the Ching dynasty. Among the mall's living exhibits are a petting zoo (I'm unsure as to whether this is a permanent fixture or a temporary gig), a dolphin lagoon (down to the last dolphin, Howard, and the mall is under a lot of pressure to give him up), and a variety of aquatic life visible either from within the malls fleet of submarines or in aquaria scattered about the mall.
The Mall has four mascots - Sharky from the World Waterpark, Deep Sea Danny from the Deep Sea Adventure, Cosmo from Galaxyland, and Professor Wem from Professor Wem's Adventure Golf
The mall has 325,000 light fixtures, so even in the dead of night they can keep the place lit brightly. The mall provides jobs for 23,500 people, and has over 20,000 parking spaces in the world's largest parking lot. There's also a fairly large bus station in the parking lot too, if finding a parking space is a worry.
The Mall covers 493,000 square meters (5.3 million square feet), getting it into the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest shopping center. I've heard rumours about a fifth phase being added at some point, adding 25% more retail space, a 12 storey apartment building, a 12 storey office building, and an 8000 seat mulitpurpose arena. I don't envy the people in that neighbourhood. The traffic is already horrible, and the five nightclubs in the mall attract a lot of problems to the area. Expansion won't help that. The mall is already killing off other parts of the city as businesses move to it. And besides, it already looks as though Dr. Frankenstein was on the architectural team. But maybe it won't be as bad as everyone seems to think.
