•Duelling garden centres at Bayview-Davisville

•It appears to be case of duelling garden centres at the corner of Bayview and Davisville Aves. That’s because the Valu mart grocery store, owned by Loblaw subsidiary National Grocers, has taken several spaces in the parking lot and built a fenced garden sales centre smack up against the new Davenport Garden Centre. As readers of The Bulldog will know, Davenport recently leased the space formerly owned by Garden Court Nurseries and installed a nice flower and plant place right on Davisville You can see the Valu mart place in the foreground of the top picture, with Davenport’s new building in the background. Below is a shot inside the Davenport centre. You can see how the Valu mart structure pretty much isolates the Davenport nursery from the parking lot. Well, it does belong to Valu mart after all. Today it was very crowded in the parking lot without those extra spaces. Some traffic had to exit by way of Bayview. For her part, the manager of the Davenport space, Carla Rose smiled and said: “The more the merrier.”
