It is at the southeast corner of US 287 and Arapahoe Road in Erie. In addition to the anchors it has Five Guys burgers, Modern Mint dentistry, Taco Bell, UC Health urgent care, Magic Nails, AT&T, Restore Hyper Wellness, and Sapporo Sushi & Grill. Parking right next to the strip mall is a little skimpy, but there is lots of room in front of Lowes.

Major retailers are King Soopers, Ace Hardware, Target, Great Clips, Cricket Wireless, Bellco Credit Union, Orangetheory Fitness, Lakefront Eyecare, crumbl Cookies, Nails Pro Spa, Happy Lemon (bubble tea), GNC, Sally Beauty Supply, McDonald's, and Chase Bank. There seems to be a lot of confusion between this open-air retail area--Edgewater Marketplace--and the Edgewater Public Market which is an enclosed festival market several blocks north at West 22nd Avenue and Depew Street. I often stop here on my way to or from Lakewood because there's a very convenient King Soopers gas station. The Soopers store itself is spacious and well-stocked. There's also a nice Ace Hardware. That's about the extent of my interest.

Apart from the amusement park on the other side of the lake Lakeside is fairly small. A few other restaurants and then the stores here at Lakeside center. Molly's is great if you've never been. Kind of like Argonaut or Apple Jacks if you know those local stores. Lots of parking all around even when the stores get busy. Just make sure you go the posted speed limit. Police hanging around as mentioned before and they will write your a ticket. Not much to do so they hang around this parking lot bored.

I don't even know if there were shops where the main mall area was to tell you the truth. If there was they were useless stores and did not make an impression on me. The only store that I do remember there was a Target store. It was so old it was best called a Targhetto store. Very small, about the same amount of merchandise as compared to the other Targets only you were reminded where you were and it totally sucked! A couple of weeks ago I was in this area and most if not all of Lakeside Center looked like it was getting torn down. Goodbye to an eyesore! How about putting a nice open space park here now since they finally gave this place the axe, which it needed a long time ago!

"People are walking with intentions to shop instead of just relaxing and hanging out." Ken Melies,…read moreco-owner of Eurpotics, 07/10/2014 Denver Post. What's wrong with relaxing and hanging out? Oh yeah, we got bills to pay, dolla dolla bills y'all. Fillmore Plaza used to be a pedestrian only zone, and the only car free public space in Cherry Creek North (CCN), between 1987 and 2011. After a face lift (apropos for CCN, no?) Fillmore Street is once again open to vehicular traffic and surprisingly to a lot more pedestrian activity, including some "relaxing and hanging out." By the late 2000s the 100 block of Fillmore Street was underutilized and frankly unwelcoming - there really wasn't a reason to go there. Sure there was the occasional movie night on the plaza and a few shops were still open, but overall it was an uninviting public space. There was some grassy area primarily used by kids and dogs and a couple of sputtering fountains which worked occasionally. Fast forward to today and Fillmore Street has been transformed. The street itself is paved in handsome brick, there are trees and extensive plantings, colorful lighting, and plenty of seating areas. The street grid has been reinforced and the connection between CCN and the Cherry Creek Shopping Center (south of First Avenue) functions better not only for cars, but surprisingly for pedestrians as well. And of course there is plenty of shopping. The list of shops includes primarily national and some international brand names which can afford the higher rents that CCN can command. Currently the 100 block of Fillmore includes: Europtics (my favorite sunglass store), Kate Spade, Loro Piana, Jonathan Adler, Hermes, Le Creuset, Eileen Fisher, Lululemon, prAna, Calypso, and Exofficio. Additionally, the patio of Harman's Eat & Drink faces Fillmore and is a great place to soak in the sun while enjoying a cocktail, or three, while taking in the CCN scene. Urban forms evolve over time. Cities are dynamic, their plazas and streets speak and incorporate the values reflected by their neighborhoods. The best spaces aspire to find equilibrium between the commercial realm, the market or the agora, and the needs and access afforded to the public, ideally not just for a small segment of a privileged few, but for the whole city they serve. What works in one era may not necessarily be suitable to the next and the most successful places in my opinion incorporate the needs of both private and public domains. I think the new Fillmore "Plaza" Street reflects the movement that values the street and street life in general, but it tilts just a bit to the interests of the few and in general to the private sphere. Overall, I think the space is an improvement from where it was, but as always we can do better to incorporate a more vibrant mix of people, shops and activities in our public places.

The stores are a good mix of service businesses, retail shops, and restaurants with both free street parking in front of the buildings and large, free parking lots behind them. The area is very walkable and the individual buildings are attractive and inviting, set on a curved grid. Dining options include Korean, American, breakfast, coffee, and pizza. Retail shops include pet supplies, framing, jewelry, liquor, and toys. Service businesses provide hair care, physical therapy, real estate, promotional products, alterations, dentistry, nail care, tanning, spa services, fitness, and vision care. This is a very convenient shopping, dining, and service area for the local neighborhood.

Pizza (Papa John's), sushi, a bar (Bout Time Pub and Grub), and a breakfast spot are adjacent. They also have a Burger King and a Taco Bell. A Chase Bank, a gym, Big Lots, a massage place, a 7-11, a liquor store, King Soopers also with a gas station, and J's Cafe (Chinese) rounds out the area. Basically one big parking lot with several stores around the outside perimeter. No real lanes or arrows in or out so watch where you park and drive. Some people will drive 35 through the parking lot so that's something to be careful of. Otherwise it's like any other strip mall in the area.
