Hillcrest Mall is the principal Richmond Hill premium regional shopping centre at 9350 Yonge Street in the Richmond Hill community of York Region, Ontario, opened in 1973 with the 50,000-sqm regional format spanning approximately 115 retail and service units. The property is owned and managed by Cadillac Fairview as the principal CF York Region lifestyle retail asset, serving as the premier fashion and luxury destination for the affluent Richmond Hill and Markham communities with one of the highest concentrations of luxury retail in a regional mall outside Toronto’s downtown core.

The format combines the Hudson’s Bay Company and Sport Chek anchor stores with one of the most concentrated luxury and premium retail registers of any regional mall in Ontario, featuring Louis Vuitton, Burberry, Tory Burch, Coach, Michael Kors, Sephora, Lululemon, and the broader luxury and premium Canadian and international fashion programming. The dedicated luxury boutique row, the comprehensive dining circuit, and the broader premium retail-and-services programming serving the Richmond Hill and York Region professional and affluent demographic complete the contemporary York Region premium regional offer.

The catchment combines the dense Richmond Hill, Markham, and Thornhill residential demographic of approximately 300,000 residents, Richmond Hill and Markham rank among the highest per-capita income municipalities in Ontario with a substantial Chinese Canadian professional community, with the broader York Region concentration of approximately 1.2 million metropolitan residents. Direct accessibility includes the direct Yonge Street arterial as the principal north-south York Region spine, the York Region Transit VIVA rapid transit on Yonge Street, and the dedicated parking infrastructure for approximately 3,000 vehicles.

Cadillac Fairview coordinates the property management of Hillcrest Mall as the flagship CF Richmond Hill luxury retail asset. The asset’s commercial role within the Canadian retail map is the premier York Region south luxury regional destination serving the affluent Richmond Hill professional catchment, complementing rather than competing with the Yorkdale CF luxury super-regional 20 kilometres south through its distinct York Region residential catchment and the Louis Vuitton and Burberry luxury anchors that position Hillcrest as the only regional mall in York Region with a comprehensive luxury fashion register within the broader Greater Toronto Area retail register.
