South Edmonton Common is one of Canada's largest retail power centres,[2] and when it will be completely developed, it will spread over 320 acres (130 ha) and contain some 2,300,000 square feet (210,000 m2) of retail space, making it one of the largest open-air retail developments in North America.[2] The Common is located in south Edmonton, Alberta, extending from 23rd Avenue south to Anthony Henday Drive, and east from Gateway Boulevard to Parsons Road.

The Common has a large base of retail tenants that provide various goods and services. The first tenant in the Commons was The Home Depot, which opened in April 1998.[3] Anchor tenants at South Edmonton Common include Canadian Tire (the chain's largest location),[4] IKEA, Cineplex Cinemas, Rona+, Real Canadian Superstore, and Walmart. Other stores include Staples, Best Buy, Marshalls, Lindt, and Mountain Equipment Company.
