There's even a skyway that connects two building structures that make-up the mall. You have you're mall standards inside like H&M, but also an Apple store. Despite being an urban mall, it's pretty spacious and - in the winter - good place to duck inside for a break from the cold weather.

There are a massive selections of shops and brand inside the mall, most are the common necessity stores. They have deals going on this holiday season, highly recommended, what a great place to relax and shop without the cold. Staff from most of the shops we have encountered were friendly. So are people in the mall. Convenient location and easy parking.

This Nike Factory Store is located in the Fashion District Philadelphia shopping center, located in…read moreCenter City on Market Street. it's a fairly large store. it's filled with discounted and overruns of Nike sneakers and clothing (basically Nike merchandise that is not selling well, discontinued, or out of season). it's very much Nike store--brightly lit, well-maintained and clean, and merchandised well. and thankfully, it does NOT smell like feet lol. there are two floors to this store...only really explored the ground floor where the majority of sneakers are. it's very much where you can buy sneakers to actually use versus "grails" aka rare kicks. lots of retail "bricks." there was more running sneakers variety, here, than I thought and obviously they have sneakers across the sports categories. the discounts are pretty good dependent on the sneaker and how badly it sold or how quickly they want to empty inventory. i think if you set the general Nike app or SNKRS app to this store, you can search its inventory. never tried bc running sneakers is pretty much in one area of the store. there's tons of open-box sneakers piled up neatly if you want to search by size. you may find better deals versus the shelved stuff. would never come here during the weekend bc this is in a shopping center with high traffic. but weekdays are a safe bet. have not purchased here in a while bc the last pair i thought about was cleared out the next time i went aka you snooze you lose. the staff are hit-or-miss, generally helpful, but in general the service has been passable at worst. if you are looking to make a day of shopping, there's a decent variety of stores in this general area + an AMC movie theater. if you're looking for high-in-demand sneakers, you probably won't find them here...but if you are looking for your workhorse sneakers...then this place is a good place to find a pair.

I really have to wonder if the people who talk about the great selection here have been to…read moreliterally any other store, anywhere? Their produce selection is abysmal. Do you need a pepper? No, you can only buy a pack of 6. Do you need a lemon? Again, you can only get a gigantic bag. Want some green beans or Brussels sprouts? They don't have them. How about some ginger root? Again, not carried. Do you need some body wash? It's all locked up, better get an associate! How about a card for a baby shower? You have the option of three. In the market for women's shoes? They have precisely ZERO. Their makeup/nail polish selection is satisfactory. There is a Starbucks on-site, which was thrilling upon my first visit. I got breakfast and a latte! But on my second visit, exactly one week to the minute later, I was told that the Starbucks didn't open until 8 am. Funny, because my friend and I were served at 7:25 the week before, and the website (photo included here) says you open at 7, too. Gotta love the consistency! (Not.) While the location is convenient, the selection is atrocious, the PPD officer stationed at the front door is a bit unnerving, they push everyone to self-checkout even when there are unoccupied employees available, and there's not even a guarantee that you can get a redeeming Starbucks beverage! I'm done. Never again.

Not much going on here except for the homeless junkies who constantly harass you. There is a Five…read moreBelow, which is just a smaller version of the low-end department stores.

I set things up from Seattle for my mom in Philly and was a little concerned that my mom would be difficult in terms of not wanting to part with clothes even if the last time she wore them was 25 years ago, and I was worried she would be hard pressed to try new things.

It helped me get clear about how I wanted to look and feel. Next we went through my closet to purge all the items that no longer suited me. It was really helpful to have her guidance when deciding what items to keep and donate. She consigned and donated all the items I no longer wanted which was a huge help. And I made some money! Shopping was surprisingly easy and pain free! Lauren pulled several items for me to try on before I arrived. She respected my budget and I ended up with an entirely new wardrobe! Colleagues and friends have actually commented on how different and "put together" I look. Getting dressed in the morning is so much easier!

Also, lights go out after 17 min and you have to go back down the corridor to turn them on if you need more time. Why no motion sensors? Elevator down button broken for at least three weeks and counting. Office often closed during regular hours. Prices go up substantially every six months. Bait and switch with initial pricing. Avoid.

They chewed through the boxes and my items, and they left droppings everywhere. I had to throw away a lot of my items and throughly inspect and clean my remaining items, which was a monumental chore. When I contacted CubeSmart, they offered no resolution. They said that I would have to go through my insurance to get compensation even though insurance does not cover pest damage, and they refused to refund my rent.

Very friendly, staff. The merchandise looks new, and a lot of the stuff has not been in stock in their Maryland stores. They have a variety of Squishmallows. ( The cool squishy stuffed animals) They have a lot of inventory for pets. A lot of candy in stock! They even have a room, dedicated for items under $10. The tees were all in stock, I am a big fan of Five Below tees, and most stores in my area, are usually bare bones. All the cool shirts are out of stock or not in my size. Here in Philly, I found a lot of 90s theme, tees like Daria, Rugrats and Hey Arnold. One thing, I didnt know, that if your shopping in Philly, they tact on a city tax of 2% in addition to the PA tax. Majority of the their stuff was in stock. Ill definitely return.
