In my experience, the north outlets are just ok. Most of my visits here are short because I know which stores I want to shop in. It's always busy just like any other outlet mall.
There is construction going on throughout the walkways and storefronts. It doesn't make for spacious walks with orange barriers all around. Just very cramped. Many of their palms were cut down and not eye appealing.
On the plus side, they have some great stores here such as Kate Spade, Michael Kors and Burberry. It's also filled with your staple outlet stores like Nike and Disney.
When I know what I want, I'm not opposed to shopping here.
