    They blocked off a large section of previously free parking for $15 "VIP parking" creating traffic issues.

    I tend to go right at opening, it very clean and foods great when it's lunch time as I don't go after 1-2PM l, I hate that the childrens play area wasn't open at opening though last time I was there because I do try to take my son as it's too cold outside for parks this time of year.

    This mall is a great shopping destination that offers a solid variety of stores for all types of shoppers. With major department stores like Macy’s, Target, and JCPenney, it’s convenient to find everything from clothing and home essentials to beauty products and seasonal items all in one place. The layout is easy to navigate, and the mall stays clean and well-maintained, which makes the shopping experience much more enjoyable. One of the things I appreciate most is how different the atmosphere feels depending on the day you visit. On weekdays, the mall is quiet and peaceful, making it perfect for running errands or browsing without crowds. You can take your time exploring stores and finding great deals without feeling rushed. On weekends, the mall gets noticeably busier, bringing more energy and activity. It’s a great time to visit if you enjoy a livelier environment or want to take advantage of weekend promotions. There is also a wide selection of men’s and women’s clothing stores, offering everything from casual wear and business attire to accessories and shoes. Whether you’re shopping for everyday basics or something stylish for an event, you’ll likely find what you need here. Overall, it’s a dependable and enjoyable place to shop.
