An outlet mall proposed for the Ottawa’s west end is one step closer to being built, as councillors on the city’s planning committee gave their go-ahead to the proposal at a Tuesday meeting.

Topics :: Tanger Outlet Centers , U.S.

U.S. retailer Tanger Outlet Centers has teamed with a number of local firms to bring the pedestrian mall to a site close to Scotiabank Place. They are also planning on building several restaurants and a hotel.

A full meeting of city council will be responsible for giving the final approval for the proposal.

Can anyone tell me what distinguishes an outlet mall from any other kind of mall? Don't they all have shops in them? Are the prices cheaper or the goods significantly different? Would I be considered crass if I suggested that the use of the term 'outlet' is just a marketing ploy to attract customers who otherwise wouldn't bother to visit it?
