Originally opened in 1978 as The Riverbank Mall, this property stood largely vacant for nearly a decade before selling in early 2014. The Lane's refurbishment stitches itself into the urban fabric of Hamilton and aims to encourage a new way of thinking about tenanted spaces and inspire a fresh look at the potential of similar opportunities throughout the CBD. While the individual tenancies have their own distinct feel, the design has sought to create a language that unifies them. Tab signage, planting, and ingenuity contribute to the “Lane feel”. As each tenancy has been fitted out, the various designers have caught on and maintained the authentic and tactile experience.
