The Elora Mews is a prime, high traffic retail location in the scenic, historic, and artistic Ontario village of Elora
The Elora Mews shopping centre is a captivating destination year-round. Centrally located in the beautiful historic Ontario village of Elora at 45 Mill Street West, on the North side of this favourite shopping street, facing the Grand River lookout and piers of the old pedestrian bridge. The Elora Mews lantern-lit courtyard within old stone walls is a wonderful place to explore unique boutiques and a wonderful gallery of original art and design, to enjoy the popular ice cream and donair shop and relax on the outdoor patio. The thick limestone wall façade along Mill Street
West,
remaining from the 19th century Mundell Furniture Factory, gives the Elora Mews
property much distinctive character, as does the two-storey solid
limestone
building at the back of the courtyard, which formerly
housed the 19th century Blatchford Organ Factory.
After a mid 1950s fire on Elora's Mill Street left
only today's stone walls standing, the vacant site was used as a lumber
yard and parking lot. In 1978 the original wing of shops
was built within the restored stone walls, extending from today's ice cream
shop fronting Mill Street to today's
Karger Gallery at the back of the courtyard. Another wing was added in 1988 to wrap around the
left side of the courtyard,
creating an additional 2 retail stores and an outdoor
patio and seating area
around a tree and planter, with a view onto Mill Street and the Grand
River lookout through the
"windows" in the old stone wall. Together, the independent and creative shopkeepers in the Elora Mews create an exciting retail environment within these walls, offering a unique shopping experience and exceptional personal service. For information about the location of the individual shops, and the special features of each retail unit, click on the “Map of Elora Mews” above. From time to time, due to the changing needs of some of our merchants, a space becomes available for lease. All the retail units have long-term standard leases. The rent includes property and business taxes, as well as insurance and maintenance of the building structure and property. Tenants pay their own utilities and are responsible for insuring and maintaining their own units. The Elora Mews has been owned, developed and managed by Renee Makino since 1982. For further leasing and property management information, call (905) 274-2463 or contact the owner by mail or e-mail.
