Does Manhattan have any malls or buildings that you'd consider mini malls? I remember going into one mall. See attached picture. But I was wondering about some other places like that. Obviously the malls where I live are a lot different because they take up so much land mass.
I'll be there next month and doing a lot of site seeing. But in case it rains or I need a break from the sun it would be nice to hit up a mall for an hour or so.
manhattan, like most dense urban areas, doesn't have a very successful history with malls since traditionally they depend on big parking lots. with lots of mass transit instead most shopping is in individual stores. aside from manhattan mall--which been redeveloped with the demise of gimbel's and the addition of jc penney--the only others i know of are high end malls, the time warner center at columbus circle and a a smaller one in trump tower on 56th and 5th.
Nuts,
Yesterday I toured Roosevelt Island, rode the Tram the first time, did an Indian buffet lunch in Jackson Heights and visited a friend in Rego Park. I forgot ALL about the Queens Center.
I guess that gives me another shot at Indian Taj or the Jackson Diner.
I know most Malls are pretty samey but it's a nice way to beat the afternoon heat and maybe even catch a movie.
For someone looking for an easy trip to a big Mall, consider the NEWPORT CENTER. (Newport stop on PATH, first stop in NJ.<Jersey City>)

That's one reason I posted this. In August I know it can get really hot. So when I'm touring the city it might be nice to chill in a mall for an hour to get out of the eat.
