Lime Ridge Mall (corporately styled as "CF Lime Ridge") is a two-level indoor shopping mall in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Opened on September 13, 1981, it is the largest mall complex in the city, an 815,000-square-foot (75,700 m2) super-regional shopping centre with over 213 stores including department stores and big box stores such as Hudson's Bay. Sears closed in 2017.[1] It is located on 999 Upper Wentworth Street.

The mall, which includes an office building, is managed by Cadillac Fairview and has four floors of office space.[2] Bell Media radio stations in Hamilton are tenants of the building.

In 1981 the Government of Ontario offered to build an elevated rapid transit line from the Lloyd D. Jackson Square in downtown Hamilton, to the mall.[3] Hamilton turned the proposal down.
