History
Place Vertu's original anchors were the Bay, Sears, Kmart and Dominion. The mall was expanded in the 1980s when a corridor was added, going from the center court to a new Pascal's hardware store. Another corridor with an office tower was added in the mid-1980s from the Bay to Pascal's.
Dominion was converted into a Provigo in 1983, Pascal's former space occupied by Zellers in 1991, Provigo once more converted, into a Maxi in 1994 and Kmart's former store space occupied by Canadian Tire in 2000. Maxi closed in 2001. The Bay closed in May 2007; Zellers relocated to the Bay's vacated location the same year.
Since 2008, the mall has been renovated and now include tenants such as Urban Planet, Dollarama, Laura/Laura+/Laura Petite Outlet, Browns Outlet, Starbucks Coffee (taking Subway's old space after that location moved to the food court). Adonis Supermarket took the space of Maxi in 2009. Additionally, the mall space between Zellers and the food court was turned into a Winners (which had moved from the strip mall across the street) and the existing tenants from this section were relocated elsewhere in the mall. Zellers old space (formerly Pascal's) remained empty, but was replaced by Gold's Gym in 2012.
After more than 20 years in the mall, Zellers closed in December 2012 and was succeeded the following year by Target, but it was closed in 2015, and Sports Experts/Atmosphere relocated to that space in November 2016.
Sears closed in October 2017.

In 2001, Cambridge merged with Ivanhoe to become Ivanhoe Cambridge; Place Vertu became the property of this combined company. Ten years later, in 2011, Ivanhoe Cambridge sold the mall to Primaris.
