The American Dream Mall is the second-largest mall in the United States. It has three million square feet of space and includes a Theme Park, Water Park, Ice-skating Rink, Indoor Skiing or Snowboarding, and Mini Golf attractions. This was my first visit to the mall, and I was blown away by how many attractions and stores there were.

This was a different kind of walk, this mall has it all-combining adventure, entertainment and shopping for the adults and kids-the ice skating rink, the small wildlife vehicles, the water park and so on. If you want to rest, there are huge seating areas available here, which reminds me of a huge public living room. I enjoyed your video, thank you so much for taking us there and yes, it is a dream 🤩🤗💖

These types of mall are outdated already. Now the thing with malls is like kind of upscale strip malls, with the outside made to look like a cute downtown. I think the first of this kind was a very large mall near me, near Lawrenceville GA, Mall of Georgia. It had the first town outdoor part. The builder said his daughter said to make it look like Soho, NY. And I think that started the fashion.

You know ActionKid, I've gotta tell you... I can see that Mall becoming one of this country's most monumental abandoned retail spaces within as little as ten years. I just don't see it becoming busy enough and profitable enough to become a viable location in the long term. It just seems like a vast indoor curiosity to me, not something that shoppers will come to consider a necessary replacement for more local merchants, big box outlets, and online shopping.
@litlgrey
@litlgrey 2 года назад
@Dawg Dev5 I appreciate what you're saying but based upon what I am able to observe of the facility, with its vast under-utilized and wholly non-utilized areas and its huge parking structure, I find I can not agree with your point of view. It would be as if Mall of the Americas were little more than an indoor theme park with some shopping, which it most definitely is not.

Thanks AK for the nice tour of American Dream. It's certainly a combination of Vegas&a cruise ship feel....I haven't visited yet,but many I know have. It's a beautiful huge mall,but clearly people will go because of the entertainment there,water park,skating,etc. Sadly,malls will become extinct without becoming entertainment centers. American Dream is lovely,but so much space remains vacant,it's a concern. People heading to this mall just for the water park,are not likely to be patronizing retail stores. I think that's going to be the case&have to question how this huge massive mall can survive

The initial corridor inside the mall has nice flooring but they put no effort into the appearance of the ceiling. Very drab. The main area is amazing albeit I’m not a fan of the square pillars. Also, I’m not against people taking pictures in the mall, but be considerate and don’t take forever doing it. There’s other people waiting to get by. It truly is an amazing mall. Let’s hope people won’t be making dead mall videos here for a very long time.

One of my first thoughts was "Why is there so much empty space!?" Like that one whole area you walk down that is just a long hallway of nothing. And then the thought of how much energy/power is needed for this giant building. If anything, I feel like this place should have been an art museum rather than a mall with all the crazy decor everywhere. Just way too much open space with nothing in it. Maybe it's because the malls I've lived around are smaller and more condensed, but the point of this mall seems to be more about how gigantic it is than being well...a shopping mall. Even the Mall of America is like that, having gone there a few times in my life. The big thing that seems to keep these giant malls alive is tourism. I saw a lot of it in this video even. Lots of people snapping photos. So, aside from the tourism stuff and the food court, I imagine the other businesses don't do great. Especially during the whole pandemic thing,

the mall still has over 600,000 square feet to lease up and they have no takers. the place is going nowhere fast. they literally built no infrastructure to even accomodate traffic to it but since it sucks nobody even goes. they just plopped a massive structure and route 120 and were like "this is fine"🙄

@@ChatGPT1111 Not too long ago, American Dream Mall had only $800 in reserve cash. That's not a typo; only eight hundred dollars. I'm sure that amount is quite a bit higher now, but this mall is definitely not in the best shape financially. This whole financial situation is unfortunate, given all of the effort that went into making this mall. There were a lot of days and multiple economic setbacks, though. Construction actually started way back in 2004 as the Meadowlands Xanadu, but the 2008-09 recession and bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers ended that. After some ownership changes, Triple Five finally started opening portions of the mall in late 2019, but that came just before the full impact of COVID-19 struck in March 2020. A lot of American Dream's issues seem to stem from bad luck.

Great tour! I live just a few minutes away and have the privilege of going often. Parking is cheap, and it is a great place to take guests. I do think it is going to continue to struggle though since the attractions are its main draw. For what you get, especially at the theme park and water park, the prices are too high (even for NJ). It is more expensive than Great Adventure. Of course the indoor element helps on a cold or rainy day, but it really isn't worth the price.

Amazing mall. It was originally suppose to open like 12 years ago or something. It's not making much money from what I hear. The owners had been planning on building an even bigger mall in miami but the plans are on hold now. I hope it does well. The ski dome would be fun. Snowboarding in July would be awesome!

I go you're going to have to do a recap of this mall in a year because I think it'll have half the amount of stores next year or be closed in general, I find it interesting if you look at the people in your video hardly anybody has any bags in their hand from shopping which is not a good sign for any store especially something this size!

Thanks for the upload brother. Just watched 5 minutes so far. The white shiny tiles, white blank walls & lighting creates a very cold and impersonal atmosphere. Like one big empty glamour palace/space ship with some shops and entertainment to fill up the space. In 5-10 years when this trend is out dated, they have to spend another few billion dollars for the next trend. Instead of building something with features that is timeless and adds value to the community and people.

I'm having a hard time finding out the mall's real vacancy rate, but by your pictures there are large sections with no stores, over two years after it opened. I wonder how many stores have already closed. We'll see how it succeeds over the years, but many malls start to lose some tenants, then more and then some more. Eventually they shut down. Will American Dream be too big to fail? I don't know, but to keep local shoppers coming back, it will have to be a mall where they can shop for what they want with ease. The novelty of a big mall nearby does wear off.

I was just at this mall yesterday (2/14/2022) and unfortunately this mall was supposed to open with a lot of retail stores right before covid whatever pandemic hit and a lot of stores pulled out of the commitment to open there so they don't have even half the stores this place could have. This is a good place to bring your kids but if its just adults the place can get boring quick at least to me and we waisted money going into the Sealife aquarium small and boring they had fish we have in our fish (cichlids & tetras) tank at home. The only reason I would go back to that mall is to shop at some of the stores my local mall does not have. Otherwise its not worth it.

American dream mall is actually the largest mall when it comes to the footprint of the building. However Mall of America has many more stories to it, making up for what it doesn't have a large footprint in overall square footage. Nonetheless they're developed and operated by the same company.
