Fantastic to see, I love looking at the history of the mall. When I saw there was a loblaws I was confused where that would of been but seeing it was where the lenscrafters & mattress store (formerly bulk barn) it makes sense!

Loved this show.

great video Greg! well done...fantastic trip "back in time" - hope other Ryerson (now Toronto Metropolitan University) alumni post video too!

Donut Window had the best chocolate donuts. Wish there were some photos of the old Santa's Village (when it was a magical path and not just a chair).

Watched his show many times

Damn how time flies...i remember 1989

I was born in 79 so all of my memories of Hillcrest are from the 80s and early 90s (we moved away mid 90s). The interior was pretty much intact as the video shows above until their first reno which I think was late 90s? I remember the rounded ceiling awnings, the tree's with those grates, the 70s brick floor and those tiled pillars. This is why I relate to the 70s more than the 80s looking back even though I was pretty much an 80s kid. So many of the places I went still had old 70s interiors and exteriors.

who could forget those horrible green rounded chairs in the foodcourt? Great video!

We love Elwood Glover he's alright.

Thank you for sharing

2020 grad here - LSS isn’t looking so good. Oh how the mighty fall from grace

Would you happen to have footage of Terry Fox in Richmond Hill?

are you still shooting commercials in Toronto???

Thanks Gregory! Do you have the Cab Calloway show? I was part of Homemade Theatre and we did a number of shows . We were part of Hi-De-Ho chorus with Cab.

Fun & Games Thanks for the memories

Odd, I did not remember a library there

I enjoyed watching those! Great job getting them restored. Loved the funny outtakes at the end! LOL

Thanks so much for sharing! My friends and I would skip high school, just to hang out at Hillcrest Mall, until the truency officers spotted us. LOL

Capt Submarine. MUCH Better than Mr Submarine will ever want to be. And I remember Leisure World, Dominion Play World, The arcade were quarters were used up all the time. And I remember seeing the Littlest Hobo dogs too

Thanks for sharing this. It brings back so many wonderful memories of a much simpler time.

I used to go EVERY Saturday with my parents when it first opened. One week for lunch I would have Mr Sub Roast Beef Sub (They were so much better then) or the next week it would be Points east spareribs. I miss how it used to be there.

Greg, love to get in touch with you, you are my 2nd cousin, through Mark Rice, William's brother.

Hi Gregory, I'm your 2nd cousin through William's brother Mark one of the other owners of Rices' Dairy, just stumbled across your photos, like to get in touch with you. David Rice.

The grass was greener back then! Oh the memories

The reverse in the actors's name dept.

That was Mr. Curtis in those class photographs.

Somebody, Anybody, please post any episodes of Everything Goes. As these pictures attest, it was a classic Toronto entertainment show with tons of entertainment, a smokin' house band and the comedy stylings of American host, Norm Crosby.

Is that The Peaches at 0:42?

Iconic Singer Stompin' Tom Connors was Married Live on Elwoods Show.

"Frank Wayne and Johnny Shuster"? Seriously???

Which time base corrector do you use?

So different compared to now

looks exactly the same

I'd like to see the shows on UA-cam. I went to a lot of the tapings of that show and was even on once during the band-conducting segment.

Where did you get those photos? Do you have any more? I was the talent booker on Everything Goes and would be interested in seeing more photos. Leslie
