Polo Park is Winnipeg's largest retail and entertainment district. Situated on the former Polo Park Racetrack, the Polo Park Mall was one of the first enclosed shopping malls in Canada. The mall of Polo Park has over 200 stores including Zellers, The Bay, Sears and the SilverCity movie theatres. It is the largest shopping centre in Canada between Toronto and Calgary.
The district was also the home of the Winnipeg Arena and continues to be the home of the Winnipeg Stadium (now the Canad Inns Stadium). The Winnipeg Velodrome was adjacent to the arena and the stadium. It was torn down in the 1990s to make way for a strip mall that includes Home Depot and Chapters.
The CKY building was situated near the stadium and the arena. Until 2006, it housed the city's CTV television network affiliate, CKY-TV. For many years, it was also the home of CKY radio and FM 92 CITI. The building was also the original home of the WTN network.
In 2007 Polo Park is slated to get a $30 million expansion, adding 20,000 square feet.
In 1986 the mall got a $75 million renovation that added a second story.
