    So, how appropriate to recognize the National Bank of Whittier, it's a historic building in uptown Whittier,CA.

    Beautiful historic spot in the Uptown Whittier location off of Philadelphia in the city of…read moreWhittier. This once was the location for Richard Nixon's law office prior to becoming the President of the United States of America. This also served as the Bank of America building. The food stalls and eating area is located on the 1st floor, parking is free and located in 2 nearby outdoor parking lots that are easily accessible to the Nixon Plaza. Half a star off though for not having much open during the breakfast hours. We came on Friday, 4/25/2025, and there happened to be the outdoor Farmer's Market which took up the parking spaces, quarter star off. The Providence Bakehouse was open so we gladly went there to place our breakfast order. It would be nice though if there were more food stalls available for the breakfast hours. Another quarter star off for not having enough signage or a directory to indicate what food and drink establishments were available, something to read on display versus having to look it up on their website which also was lacking in information. It would be nice to see this place more livelier, perhaps we need to return at night or at least in the afternoon. So if you want to see a historic building being repurposed into a modern food hall, then be sure to come here later in the day and into the night. Hope to return and give it another try!

    The food court inside of here is a vibe! I love the old world offerings, very traditional, home…read moremade, and just a place to go that has a vintage look. Its got music, a coffee and dessert place, and savory food places.

    It will always be the Whittwood Mall to me. I grew up with this mall, almost literally. It was…read moreconstructed in 1961, but my family moved to Whittier right before I was born, and my late paternal grandmother used to always tell the story of taking me in the stroller near the mall as they enclosed it in 1977 or 1978, and infant/toddler John S. used to imitate the hammering and other construction sounds, and he associated those sounds with being in a stroller with his grandmother. It's still hanging on, somehow. I don't know how much longer JCPenney ("Penney's," as we call it) will last, my mother's best efforts to keep it financially afloat notwithstanding. The Sears will almost surely close within the year, but that's all right, because I still and always will associate that building with The Broadway (RIP). And some of my earliest memories were created at this mall. Because the Penney's and Broadway shoe departments looked similar, I used to think they were the same place when I was four or so. I distinctly remember the shock and then gradual understanding of how two different places could look so similar but actually be different. I also memorized my phone number (my parents still have it, two area-code changes later) while walking from our parked car to Penney's: "2-1-3, 9-4-7 . . . ." I really miss the enclosed mall. Not because it was unique in any particular way, but there were all these small details that only I and a few other people of my generation remember. Like those wooden animals that were a poor substitute for a play structure in the center of the mall, and the huge-huge-huge diameter metal pipe that encircled those animals but that wasn't an actual fence, as children could squeeze under it easily. And the weird lower level of the seating for the pathetic-but-delicious food court. And the arcade! This review is now completely sopped in my memories, so I'll tell you more. There used to be a focus-group company that would try to get people to sign up for surveys while you walked. I went to one with my (older) sister, when she was a teenager and I was maybe 8 or 9. We saw mock-ups of a commercial for milk that eventually became a real live-action-and-animation commercial. That was so cool! And Miller's Outpost (RIP) and Stride Rite (RIP), and the Gap before it turned into a horrible sweatshop company and the actual phone store with all the crazy phone options and Boston Store (RIP) where I got lost for the first and scariest time as a child and Conlon Bros. (RIP) and Sav-on in the mall before it became Osco and then Jewel-Osco and then back to Sav-on before CVS bought it. Sav-on used to have ice cream like Thrifty, and the same oldish woman with the denim smock and longish, graying braids would be working most of the time. And that mysterious but comforting women's store with the fake spooky gas lamps that flickered on either side of the storefront. I also miss Farrell's (RIP) and its arcade where my siblings set high scores on Centipede. And the original theater (RIP) and the replacement theater (RIP), where I got good at the TMNT and The Simpsons video games in 7th and 8th grades. I even miss the tire store and Jewlecor (RIP) and the janky but massive Crown Books (RIP) that replaced the B. Dalton (RIP) on the opposite side of the mall. Another formative memory was walking west in the mall with my mother in the mall building on August 30, 1985. We were right near the wooden animals I described earlier, and some announcement came over the loudspeakers. I couldn't make it out, but suddenly, everyone around us was jumping and cheering and smiling and clapping as if the Rams had just won the Super Bowl. I asked my mom what happened, and she said that they had caught Richard Ramirez, the serial killer known as the Night Stalker who had terrorized Southern California for months and who had also killed the neighbor who shared a backyard fence with my cousins (I didn't know this at the time). I learned how to drive in its massive parking lot, including the ridiculous ramp up to the bank (now Bank of America). There's also a separate ramp down from the bank. The first ramp is hard to get to now that Chick-fil-A and its complicated drive-thru line are right next to it, but try it anyway! Not to mention those weird covered parking spots underneath the bank. (Can you believe the parking lot used to fill up so much that we used to actually need to park that far?) I know I had long eyelashes as a child because the furniture store (kind of like a proto-Pier 1) where Buffalo Wild Wings is now used to have a cashier who always used to tell five-year-old me that I could sweep the floors with my eyelashes. I hate the Target and PetSmart and the huge parking area in front of them, because that was where most of the mall was. It ran east-west from Penney's to Sear, with that slight "L" added later to connect Mervyn's (RIP), now Kohl's. I also miss Dandy Donuts (RIP) and the weird laundromat. Sorry.

    Not has changed here.. This is very old shopping center.. I…read morelived here most my life.. It was good till the late 80's Something changed by late 1990's the internet was slowly taking over. And since that time this place gotten worse.. Sure you can' slap some paint on it.. But all the major dept stores are now gone Over 400 business went under in 2008 hard telling now. This place is like nostalgia for some . The good old days are not coming back. I would show our mayor pictures of this place back in the old days And say what are you going to do now..? This place closes I won't miss it.

    One-stop shopping!!!…read more Can't beat that!!! Yeah, yeah... It's Norwalk, Ca... But... You'd be surprised at what gems you can find here.... Norwalk Town Center has the following businesses: *Super Saver Cinemas 8 *Fashion Avenue *The Avenue *5 Points Barber Shop *Children's Dental *Klazzy Kutz *La Familia & Women's Medical Clinic *Luna's Nails & Spa *Sally Beauty Supply *99 Cent Store *Bally Total Fitness *dd's Discounts *Fallas Paredas *Baskin Robbins *Chinatown Express *Sam's Burgers *Starbucks *Tacos Chihuahua *Allstate Insurance *Bank of America *Kumon *State Farm Insurance *Ana's Flowers *Auto Zone *Dollar Tree *Gamestop *GNC Nutrition *Payless Shoesource *Radio Shack *T-Mobile Since it's the season, there is also a Halloween costume store set up in one of the vacant lots. If you can't find everything in Norwalk Town Square, then there is a Ralph's market and a CVS pharmacy close by. There are other restaurants and fast food chains close by, as well. Parking here... Some areas it's park at your own risk. Parking at the BofA and by the 99 Cent Store can be pretty hectic, so be careful and mind your own! Alot of the clothing businesses do not allow food or drink, so don't even try. I learned the hard way on that... Norwalk Town Square... Give the local shops a chance...
