Don Mills is known for its shopping and picturesque neighbourhood spots. The Don Mills Shopping Centre that opened in the 1960s was originally an outdoor plaza but has transformed into the indoor shopping centre, and then further into what it stands as today, the Shops at Don Mills. This is a shopping centre that attracts locals and visitors from elsewhere to enjoy a unique indoor/outdoor shopping experience. In the centre of the Shops sits the Town Square, famously known for its stunning water fountain which erupts in choreographed routines twice every hour.
