John Daly Blvd. & Lake Merced Blvd., Daly City, CA…read more It's Jan 2024, and Westlake Shopping Center is still in operation! This 70+ year old shopping mall can be found packed with shoppers, as it offers several major anchors and other popular businesses. Currently, anchor stores include: - Safeway - Home Depot - Walgreens - Burlington Coat Factory - Ross Others: Trader Joes, Sheng Kee Bakery, Target (small), Starbucks Originally named " Westlake Town & Country Shopping Center," it opened in April 1951. It has gone thru many changes and renovations. I think that's why it has a somewhat irregular design and layout. My job often brings me into this area, as the mall is surrounded by apartment buildings. It also has a plaza that's loaded with small restaurants along Southgate Ave. My last visit to Westgate was on a Saturday evening. As I waited to turn from John Daly Blvd onto Westgate Center Rd, it looked like I was about to drive into a sea of cars. The main road thru the mall was adorned by a canopy of white lights. Park in lots or multi-level parking complex. It's a pretty large shopping center, and worth several visits.

Today, Stonestown is the hotspot of students as well as families in a city where there are no other malls. With a cinema, food court, bowling, arcade, a escape rooms, along with supermarkets and major stores as well as lots of restaurants, no wonder it's a major shopping attraction. Plus, there's plenty of parking, a rarity in San Francisco!

The parking and getting there is a bit bizarre since there's an underpass bridge that the mall…read moreitself goes over I think? It reminds me of a smaller Del Amo Fashion Mall if anything. Parking and driving around looked quite busy in the front where you can see that tiny Trader Joe's that's overshadowed by the giga Whole Foods and what I think are protestors against Uniqlo, I think. Never seen protestors for that brand in particular, but it is what it is. There's LOTS of college students (near SFSU apparently) and Zoomers since it was, I suppose it's after school on a Tuesday. Parking the back was no issue. Also a decent selection of shops that I would go to normally, like Daiso or Miniso, as well as a Round 1. Neat that they have a Quickly's that looks like it's untouched by time (portraits of cute Ulzzang style workers enjoying the drinks and food there), there's charging tables, and a good amount of eateries and options to get boba and snacks. Completely incomprehensible unless you're specifically from the 626, but this mall reminds me of a mix between the Santa Anita mall and the West Covina mall (during it's prime). Pretty bustling and lots of businesses that actually interest me. I think my only qualm is that everything is at a smaller scale and smaller store, like their Pop Mart and Miniso are markedly smaller with a smaller stock, so keep that in mind.

It also has some non-asian businesses like O'Reilly Auto Parts, KFC, Subway, and Armed Forces Recruiting. I was at this plaza around 5pm on a Monday. I drive a pickup truck, and I didn't have too many issues with parking. Drivers need to slow down and beware of pedestrians. People just seem to walk around the lot with no concern for traffic. The big issue for me was leaving the shopping center. There need more stopsigns to stop cross traffic. This would give drivers a chance to exit the mall lot safely. I observed cross traffic not using turn signals, so drivers have to wait. In general, an OK shopping plaza. I will return and explore it.

Even though it looks big, the center's layout does allow for an easy walk to every shop and get everything. Getting here is not exactly convenient, even if living in nearby SF. You have to take a couple of freeways and detours to arrive. Note you will improve your car parking and driving maneuverability skills if you come here during supper time and during the weekend.

I visited Hillsdale Mall for the first time in decades!…read more I wanted to drop by and survey the parking near Palette Tea Garden. I decided it was best to park on the roof and take the escalator down to ground level.....right to the restaurant! While I was there, I walked around to see what the indoor mall was like. It's a nice shopping mall with a variety of shops, restaurants, and services. The North Mall has a huge "Dining Terrace" which includes an outdoor patio with fire pits. I like the hand washing area. I heard stories that the owners of the mall want to tear down the enclosed mall and build a mixed use open air mall. The plan is yet to be approved. I like Hillsdale Mall the way it is.

Honestly, for what it is, Tanforan is surviving. It is a place of so much history that a lot of…read moreus don't even know. I've been told it used to be a racetrack, Japanese American internment camp, to name a few. It's hard to believe this place has so much history but can look so abandoned on the outside. This was where I had my first job working at Miller's Outpost / Anchor Blue. That's when it used to be a very alive mall then, with the super cheap double show movie theater. The good old days when life was much simpler and we weren't glued to cell phones, lol. I could've sworn I read somewhere a while back this place was sold, and it was going to be like a biotech/ apartment in like 5 years or so. I could be wrong. Like most malls now, it's mostly all about food. I believe they still do off the grid here every Tuesday. For what it is, it's still a cool place to just walk around, catch a movie, and get a bite to eat.

My heart racing as a snarfed down the last french fries - I rush out the door dashing to my car. As I approached I was absolutely delighted not to find a ticket under my wiper.
