Once a traditional enclosed mall with growing vacancies, Lancaster Mall has transformed into Lancaster Crossing—a thriving retail destination that’s redefining what success looks like in today’s ever-evolving commercial real estate landscape.

At the heart of this revitalization is Salthill Capital, the landlord behind the bold rebranding and strategic repositioning of the property. Recognizing shifting consumer preferences and retail trends, Salthill reimagined the property, transitioning away from the conventional interior mall model to a dynamic big-box retail format better aligned with the needs of modern shoppers and national tenants. The result? A powerful resurgence for this key retail node in Saint John West.

The proof is in the momentum: Lancaster Crossing now boasts a bustling lineup of tenants, with recent openings like family-favourite Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House and NAPA Auto Parts bringing renewed energy and traffic to the centre.

And the excitement doesn’t stop there. Construction is now underway on a brand-new 18,000 square foot space, set to house a major upcoming tenant. This build will occupy the footprint of several former smaller mall units and a significant portion of the interior common corridor, further solidifying the transition from a traditional mall to a modern, open-concept shopping hub.

From once having multiple vacancies to now being nearly fully leased, with just one remaining 14,000 square foot unit available, Lancaster Crossing is quickly becoming one of the region’s top retail destinations.
