Fields on Fraser Street

This is another older photo taken shortly before the store closed back in 2012. Fields was part of a discount department store chain that was owned by the Hudson's Bay Company. In late 2011 HBC decided to shutter all 141 of its Fields stores across Canada. Too bad as the store was kind of unique to Vancouver with it's retro styled triangular plastic letters! Today the store is a Fruiticana produce shop which is part of a chain which operates in BC and Alberta.

  1. I really wish I had gone to this store when I had the chance. The store in Victoria was part of my childhood, although it was far down the list of preferred department stores.
