History
The shopping centre was developed by James Kelly of Toronto. The centre was built in West Kildonan upon 40 acres of land. Upon construction in 1969–1970, at a cost of millions of dollars, 100,000 ft2 of space. The initial plan was for 40 stores. The T. Eaton Co. Limited also purchased space in the mall.

A major expansion began in 1974, with a 181,000 ft2 addition. Anchor stores at that time included the Simpson-Sears store and a Dominion supermarket, with plans to add an Eaton's store and a Beaver Lumber. T. Eaton Co. Limited opened an 86,000 ft2 store in August 1976. As of that same year, Garden City was one of the four largest regional malls in the city of Winnipeg.

The Eaton's store closed in 1998, and its space was taken over by a Canadian Tire store.

In Spring 2018, Garden City completed a $10-million renovation. The centre was enhanced with revitalized interiors, new seating, new bathrooms, revamped food court, and energy-efficient lighting throughout.

With Sears Canada having closed their operations due to nationwide bankruptcy, the space formerly occupied by them at the shopping centre has been redeveloped. The 92,000 ft2 area was divided into multiple units, and a lease has been signed with Seafood City Supermarket, a new-to-Winnipeg iconic Filipino-focused grocer, Michaels, and Bulk Barn.
