The Tower Shops is a 67 acre strip mall located at the SE
Intersection of University Drive and I-595. There are over 2,500 parking spaces.
Anchor stores include Trader Joe's, Ross, TJ Maxx, DSW, Michaels, Old Navy, Office Depot, and Best Buy. On the outskirts is a Costco and Home Depot. In 2017 an additional 50,000 square feet of retail was added which included restaurants and shops. Restaurants include Burger Fi, Apropo Crepes and Baguettes, Bento Asian Kitchen & Sushi, Mash'D Food Moonshine Life, Halal Guys, and Miller's Ale House plus many more. Retailers include Dress Barn, Claire's, Bath & Body Works, and ULTA Beauty to name just a few.
Years ago when I lived in Davie in the 90's this was just a sleepy little strip mall. For over 20 years they held a car show here but they stopped in 2014 to make room for more tenants. Now with all of the additions they can compete with any indoor mall. I like coming here because I can get a lot of shopping done in a small area. I'll buy some clothes at Dress Barn, pick up bath products at Bath & Body Works, my makeup at ULTA, odd and ends for the house at Home Depot, groceries at Trader Joe's and grab dinner at Burger Fi or Bento Asian. For a lot of the restaurants, this is the only place in Broward County where you can find them. If you want to be pampered you can come to the Towers to get a massage, haircut, or your nails done. I think the only thing they are missing is a movie theater.
If there is a downside to the Towers it is that driving in the plaza itself can tricky. Traffic is congested and at places like Trader Joe's there is never enough parking. Sometimes when I want to go to Bento I can't even park near it. It is worth a little hassle however because so many of my favorite places to eat and shop are located in one place. For me it is worth the drive to Davie. read more
