    If your are an evolutionist you might consider writing a case study on The Canyon Crest Town Center. I have lived in walking distance of this wonderful place ever since 1994 and have seen it go through many transitions and changes. I was here when Ralphs was an Alpha Beta, Rite Aid was a Thirftys, The Shoe Repair was Ritz Camera, Blockbuster (now out of business) was a Video Wiz, Water & Ice Cream was Ice Cream & Water, Coldstone/Extreme Pita/Pick Up Sticks/Starbucks was a movie theater. That's right, there actually used to be two movie theaters in this plaza right across the street from one another, then they turned one of them into a lazor tag (now Crest Cafe), and eventually just tore the other one down to replace it with the above mentioned establishments. Besides the movie theaters I will pay homage to Bonnie and Friends which was a pet store, the candy store although I forget what the name of it was now, Pizza Hut, and Imagine That Bookstore. These places are all out of business at the Towne Center now, but were once very much a part of my childhood growing up :,( tear, I suppose I'm very sentimental like that. On the other side I want to commend a few of my favorites that have stuck it through these past 17 years that I have known them: Donut Tyme, Coffee Roasters I, Monark (same owners, but the name changed from The Little Emperor), The Athletic Club (I sometimes go as a guest on my mom's pass and soak in the sauna...ahhhhhh :), and The Dry Cleaners. These are the sort of places that know you by name and I enjoy to visit them whenever the opportunity presents itself. I still have never tried Subs & Spuds although I do not know why. I will never go back to the Crest Cafe because of their reputation and first hand experience for serving mediocre at best, disgusting at worst, food. And of course I dislike Starbucks very much for trying to push out a small coffee shop that freshly roasts their own coffee and has been here for over 20 years. Shame on Starbucks and shame on the owner of the Towne Center to even allow them to build shop here; this furthers my convictions even more to continue to boycott Starbucks (support local coffee shops!!! will you join me???)! Besides this metamorphosis that The Canyon Crest Towne Center has undergone, this plaza is convenient as it has a little bit or a lot of everything that one could be shopping for. For the most part the shop's prices lean towards the $$-$$$ side, so be prepared for that if it is your first time visiting. My favorite part about this plaza is how beautiful it is. Lots of trees, flowers, fountains, and other greenery. They even have a stream with fishes swimming around and a spouting fountain that little children play in during hot days. This plaza is also very safe because of its many security guards that you can find patrolling the area 24/7. I may be biased because I grew up here, but I adore The Canyon Crest Towne Center. You may not be able to find support for the evolutionist theory that we evolved from monkeys by doing a case study here, but no matter how many alterations they make to the businesses I'm sure this place will always be great.

    The town center has a lot of stores and food. We came here on a Friday night to have dinner and some walking. The place was dead on a Friday. We wanted to get some books at the store but it was closed at 8pm. Then we wanted to go to the gourmet food shop and sample some olive oil, it was closed as well. Darn! We ended up walking to the yogurt store and getting my kiddo a treat. Overall it was just okay. I wish more stores were open.

    Good array of stores and variety of ammenities. Centrally located with some of me favorites and my necessities. Everything from banking and groceries to the gym and a speciality cupcake. Kids stores and great BBQ. Only complaint is the gas is overpriced but at least they have it if you need it.

It's wide, pedestrian only, has unique stores, many restaurants, cool sculptures and landscaping. A fun place to stroll, shop, explore.

I hope that the city residents enjoy it throughout the year. Our first time experiencing it was New Year's Eve. We'd gone to see the Festival of Lights, and had no idea about the mall being an added attraction. Many of the storefronts boast intriguing, attractive, and festive window displays. That's a great surprise to see in the 20-Teens, where that's become a lost art in many city settings. The next surprise was the lighting in the center area of the mall on the taller office buildings. It's a great complement to the light fest at the Inn. A skating rink joins the fun during the holiday season. Fountains and statuary add dimension and interest to the space. Our impressions have been that the mall is clean and safe, as well as wide & expansive. During the Festival of Lights, horse-drawn carriages are also part of the scene. A variety of restaurants provide for dining options, including Thai and Italian. Parking options may require some walking to get to where you want to go on the mall. It's worth the walk.
