This mall has a lot of stores, but the hallways feel inconvenient because if you go down one all…read morethe way, you need to go backwards to go to a different hallway. Because of that, I didn't know there was a Spencers for years (not that I was looking for that store, but it's just interesting that I never knew there was a pretty well known store in a corner for years). The food court is pretty good with a wide selection of items and this one area between the center of the mall and the food court hallway occasionally switched out. Store prices vary and the mall can't really control that, obviously, but there's a good variety of stores with their ranging prices so that you can find your preference. I only know of one bathroom area and while it's pretty big, it also feels hidden and is inconvenient if you need to go from anywhere besides the center of the mall. Also, there's great parking and a bus stop for commuters. There's also other stores located in the same area but not in the mall which is convenient for a variety of reasons.

This is a good mall with the real anchor store here being the Macy's. I usually do most of my…read moreChristmas shopping here. They have just about everything on a shopping list so it fits your needs. The Bath and Body stores are good as is Hot Topic and Tates Menswear. The JCPennys is good too. Across the way is Dicks Sporting Goods. There are a couple movie theatres and plenty of food options. CAVA just opened near the Dicks as well. Parking is plentiful but like anyone else I'm jockeying for spots close. It's usually pretty safe and there are plenty of security guards but just be careful going to your car at night. A good mall.

At the corner of Eagle Rock and Prospect Avenues, West Orange Plaza is what was formerly known as…read moreK-Mart Plaza or where the old Caldor and Rag Shop stores were located back in the day (IYKYK). It's currently undergoing a huge renovation. Existing businesses are still open and operating. These include the Whole Foods, Verizon Store, Chipotle, Jersey Mikes, Frank's Pizza, America's Best Contacts and Glasses, myGym, dogtopia, and Mavis Tires. There is a lot of construction right now as parts of the shopping strip are being prepared for a Target anchor store, and a new traffic pattern is being carved out in the plaza lot where newly built free-standing store units will be strategically situated. The new plans will completely refresh the area and bring more activity to this part of town.

Good selection of restaurants here! Very pristine outdoor strip mall, not normally my speed but…read morethis one is A ok! Really cool wine and liquor store (Stew Leonard's) which counts for 2 of the 4 stars ;) There are very clean public rest rooms too! The food outlets are as follows: Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza - Want to try it, looks pretty cool. Cupcake Cafe - looks ok for coffee, cupcakes don't float my boat so won't be partaking! CUPS Frozen Yogurt - May give it a whirl. It's Greek to Me - Busy place will try as I love Greek food. Joe's Crab Shack - Looks like a tikki bar could be worth checking out. Moe's Southwest Grill - Don't think so! T.G.I. Friday's - Not my cup of tea. Zinburger - I'd like to try this one. The retail stores are pretty generic, nothing exciting, even though I must say that Charming Charlies is merchandised really well! There's also a massive gym to work of all those calories after eating here!

Then, it practically turned into an empty circumference of vacant storefronts. Now, there are viable options, depending on what you're looking for.

So I need to give Essex Green five stars knowing how much it has improved over the years. If you…read morecompare it to K-Mart Plaza just down Prospect Ave, it's 5 stars. There are more store tenants now (it's less deserted) and there's a variety of businesses - from the Shoprite, AMC Dine-In, Panera, Dry Cleaners, Jerry's Art Store, Five Below, Macy's, Burlington, etc. In recent years, a West Orange Starbucks Drive-Thru popped up in Essex Green also. I'm optimistic that more businesses will set up shop there, perhaps even some of the artisan vendors or activity spaces that Monique suggests in her review. It's more likely now with the new Stonehill complex and the new location of the West Orange Public Library on Rooney Circle. Fingers crossed!

I'll go into Center City for Marshalls, GNC, and PriceRIte more often. I've only been to Hamilton & Ward, but there are other eateries like Downtown Grill and IHOP. Inside, I've also seen there's a nail place, as well as a movie theater and arcade. Center City Mall is easy to get to via public transportation with bus stops, and there is underground parking available. Star rating based on convenience and ease of location - especially smack in the middle of an urban area.
