Melcor Centre (originally the Lethbridge Centre) is a professional centre in Downtown Lethbridge, in Alberta, Canada. Originally built as a retail mall, the centre consists of a two-storey complex that now houses primarily professional offices and a conference facility. Its anchor tenants are the city's branch of the Hudson's Bay department store chain—only large-scale retailer—and TD Canada Trust. It transitioned from a retail mall to a professional service centre over an 11-year period.[1] [2] Its current owner, Melcor Developments Ltd., purchased the property in 2007 and renamed it to Melcor Centre in 2018.[3]
The main retail level and office tower were built in 1975 by Poole Construction at a cost of $22 million,[4] and the second retail level was built in 1988. A two-screen Famous Players movie theatre opened at Lethbridge Centre in 1979 and was closed in 2005, around the time of Cineplex Entertainment's acquisition of Famous Players.[5] The 11-storey office tower is the 4th tallest building in Lethbridge and the tallest office tower.[6]
