I am reviewing Miracle Mile Shopping Center for sentimental reasons. I recently dined at Denny's…read morenext door to this plaza. Although it deems itself as the oldest shopping centre in Rochester, it's really a plaza. It was established in 1952 and there was a major fire in 1971. I'm happy to report that these events were both well before my time! I dropped by this plaza a handful of times as a resident of Rochester. There used to be a gift shop that sold Midwest of Cannon Falls s'mores characters. I bought a few of these characters as Christmas ornaments and a larger one that was a lamp. They are still with me to this day, but this company folded, as did this gift shop. Cannon Falls is maybe a twenty-minute drive northwest of Rochester. I don't recognize that town since I moved away. It's the same about Miracle Mile. Hom Furniture is one of two businesses that rings a bell. There's a new grocery store called Fresh Thyme Market. I exited Highway 52 and you can't miss this supermarket's large sign from it. I'd estimate that there are roughly thirty businesses in this plaza. Olmsted Medical Center is still kicking around, which is the other place that has endured. This plaza is perfect for folks who live close by and don't want the bustling feel of being downtown. This shopping plaza is roughly two blocks away from the Mayo Clinic's St. Mary's Campus. There is plenty of parking at Miracle Mile. I'll need to check this plaza out more closely when I'm back again and it's not my final full day in Minnesota, especially Fresh Thyme Market. It was quite the flashback heading over here. So much change here. Even the Hardee's across the street is gone! (47)

Check out its website for a list of all the stores and services it offers/boasts! http://www.miraclemilerochester.com/mm_002.htm It is also so conveniently located right off of the highway and acts as a frontage road between 2nd St SW & Civic Center drive! :-) I am so glad I had free time to check out the stores last weekend instead of just assuming it was a deserted strip mall! BEST toy store ever! Fabulous 2nd hand shop! Great home decor/gift shop! Medical offices, cleaners, a bakery, a hardware store, a restaurant, a liquor store. It has it all!

The basics are there: a decent sized food court, Barnes & Noble for leisure stroll, and a handful of retailers such as Sheels and Macy's. Would love to see the mall freshen up a bit as some of the interior dates give 00s vibes. But that is more of cosmetics, Hope to see more stores pop up in the future. Agree with one of the other reviewers - an Apple Store would be neat!

And the bathrooms, good lord, truly frightening. I try to avoid using Walmart's bathrooms, but had no choice yesterday and I swear, I feel like I should go get tested for diphtheria or at the very least get a shot of penicillin or something. I managed Château theater and I know that even at your busiest, you can keep your bathrooms clean and looking presentable. It's pure laziness and store management should be ashamed. There is no excuse and it was not a one off thing, this is routinely the way Walmart's bathrooms look. Also, your shoppers (that are shopping for mobile orders) are SO rude. I have literally had them reach over me, block the aisles, and just about run me over while I'm shopping. All of this is a serious lack of training and honestly, a serious lack of effort on Walmart's part to provide a good shopping experience. Do better.

I remember when this Super Target first opened. I lived in Rochester and it was exciting that the…read morecity was going to get its first Target store, let alone a Super one (say Target in French to make it sound fancy). It has been well over a decade since I last visited it. I broke that streak recently when I returned to my old neighbourhood. I did a pitstop here from Eden Prairie. I then did a quick browse around the store. This store still has a Starbucks, which is likely where my love for the cafe started. A number of us back in the day (we were coincidentally all Canadians living here, employed by the same company) would often come here to get a drink and browse around Target afterwards. The women's washroom was clean. I don't recall ever using it before, so that was cool. The clothing section still makes me happy. It's bright and organized well. I did a brief tour of the produce section. It still looks the same as I had remembered it. Veggies look fresh. Fruits look yummy. No complaints on my end! The checkout area seems to have grown. I could be wrong. I don't remember so many cashiers! It was nice to reminisce. Rochester now has two Target stores. This one is in the north part of the city, which is five minutes away from where I used to live. (13)

Although it is open 7 days a week, there are less than 30 stores, and in my opinion, only one restaurant that looks worthy of dining at. All shops and restaurants are located underneath UMR between Broadway and 1st Ave., and is within walking distance of Mayo Clinic and a few other neighboring hotels. I'm not clear on where the parking area is, however, parking is free at night and on weekends. Check this place out anyway. Your opinion might differ.

The women's washroom is clean. I have no complaints. I had a Wild game to catch in St. Paul, so I didn't spend a lot of time here. I did like seeing all the sports apparel. All major Minnesota teams, including the Gophers, are represented here. There was a sale going on where you buy one item and get the second for 50% off. I rarely shopped at JC Penney when I lived here. However, in recent years, I have grown to love it. It has a Sephora section, which has been handy when I needed a replacement brush for my Clarisonic Mia facial device. The store is brighter and cheerful compared to what it used to be. It was nice to check it out again after many years. (6)
