I think this mall is a great alternative to the inevitable South Park. I forget it's there even though my house is equidistant between South Park and North Lake, but this spot is much better. The stores are less swanky, of course, but I get depressed with the swankiness of South Park. I can't afford all the bright and shinies, so it's just sad to look at them.
It's a fairly new establishment as well, so everything is clean and new and nice. The Macy's often has good sales, and I've found the movie theater to be one of the nicest around town. I also like Firebirds Grill and PF Chang's, so it's convenient to shop and pick up something good for dinner.
