Decent Mall, it's good to still have one in the East Bay!!…read more I usually get some good deals in JC Pennys, that might be the largest store in this mall along with Macys! There's a food court and movie theater downstairs. This mall isn't huge, decent sized to me. Sears used to be major in this mall, it even had auto center there. I remember getting tires put on there back in the day. Now it's gone, along with a lot of other stores. But there are still plenty of stores here, enough to keep this like a real Mall. And I always liked the location, right off of the 880 freeway in Hayward, very easy to get to!!!

Oh and let's not forget Farrell's Ice Cream Parlour! Uh yeah, I'm dating myself... BIT of HISTORY: Claimed as the West's Largest Climate-Conditioned retail development in 1957. The progressive Mid-Century shopping center was designed by the acclaimed architecture firm John Graham & Associates, known for projects as Seattle's Space Needle A shopping mall you wanted to hang out and stay awhile but with changing demographic, online commerce and sadly, crime it has evolved into what it is now. Just a shell of what it once was with a couple of stores I'd go for a quick visit. When in the area, I'll get a 15-min Chinese acupressure chair massage (Round One entrance). Extra star for the great memories of working at the mall (making friends) and learning what good customer service is compared to now. Sadly, most the anchor stores are gone like Sears with JcPenneys and Macy's hanging by a thread with minimal inventory.

"Greenhouse Marketplace" is a large open-air shopping mall in San Leandro, CA. It was opened in the…read moremid-1980's, and its website says it currently has 44 tenants. It's got a prime location right next to the I-880 & I-238 freeway junction. Why is it called "Greenhouse" Marketplace? Because before this triangular piece of land was developed into a shopping center, it was the home of rows of greenhouses. You could see them from the freeway. Long rows of glass topped greenhouses. Today it's home to a variety of stores, shops, and restaurants. It's a nice place to stop and take a break while passing thru town. Anchor stores include- Safeway, CVS, and FoodMaxx. What's negative about this place? There are some empty storefronts. The parking lot has a weird design. It probably looked fine on paper, but in reality, it's like "free style" driving. Cars are coming from different directions and there seems to be a lack of stop signs and/or traffic flow signage. Then some people think it's okay to just drive across empty parking spaces. I've never had a problem because I always stop before someone runs into me. But if you are in the area of Lewelling Blvd & I-880, drop by and visit the Greenhouse Marketplace. If you enter from Washington Ave, you will be greeted by a McDonalds and a Jack in the Box. Lots of free parking!

I do not even like Starbucks here... And I used to frequent them often. I did find a few shirts I liked at Marshalls, but did not buy as I just have way too many. Discovered Tesla charging stations "hidden" in the rear of the center, see picture. I have to admit, when we did NOT know better approximately 20 years ago, we used to come here often. But the environment has changed, and not for the better. Way busier, more car break-ins, more poor drivers, etc. And really no brands that I personally shop. Plus, we now have the Livermore outlets! Which is still my favorite! Atmosphere - 23 businesses, see website. Crazy busy on weekends. Limited parking. Potential car break-ins; see parking lot signs. Public restrooms near Starbucks, good luck. You do not even have a rideshare drop off/pick up area. Open 7 days a week. Service - Depends on where you shop. Price - Outlet pricing. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1998, we have been customers since then.

Drakes, Walmart, Home Depot. Medium size outdoor strip mall…read more Ross and Dollar tree - there are so many different places here. One Hawaiian BBQ place I went to once too. Sadly the Sees Candies is closed. That was one of the nearest ones to where I live and probably one of the ones that has been around for the longest. Drakes is a highlight. If you have never been you need to go. One of the best places in this mall that isn't an uninteresting chain. Home Depot. Been to this one tons and tons of times. Love Home Depot. Many of the faucets and some pieces of lumbar are from this store. Had some carpet installed from here using their contractors. Walmart -- keeps me coming back. Mr Moose likes some things I can only easily find here. Meanwhile I grab some other things. Parking lot is big and there is always a spot open - maybe the hardest place to find a spot is near Walmart. Mall in general is clean and never had an issue when parking my car here.

This is a cool plaza in San Leandro and is aptly named!!…read more I mainly come here for Safeway, the post office, or one of the sushi restaurants on the east end of the plaza, but there are so many places here, it's hard to name them all. The parking lot can get a little hectic at times, but this is 'downtown' San Leandro, lol. When they have the Cherry Festival here behind the plaza, this place gets really packed. I believe the Sizzler Restaurant here has closed. Good plaza to come to!!

Great place for small business. Parking is horrible Pay parking from like 7-6pm or something. Even on weekends, which sucks since you think you pay eating at the restaurants, it be free like most places. Best advice is to go across the street to Safeway or the other business since those lots aren't charging. Even the street parking near pelton plaza is charging. But other plaza don't. The enforcers circle the lot and only this lot only. Went to go pick up my drinks, left a minute. Came back for a ticket. Looks like they stake out to check if drivers leave for a moment and ticket them right away. Watch them patrol the plaza, they don't leave, just circle the same plaza and watch.
