South Coast Plaza: It’s All At The Mall

April 3, 2013 by Leave a Comment

California is widely regarded as the home of great shopping malls, so it’s no surprise that Costa Mesa boasts a truly excellent one. South Coast Plaza was opened in 1967 by the Segerstrom family in a plot of land that was formerly used for growing lima beans. From those humble beginnings, the shopping center has grown into the largest mall in California. The Plaza has expanded multiple times during its life, employing top-notch architects and designers like Victor Gruen and Isamu Noguchi to lend it a classy atmosphere. South Coast Plaza’s retailers bring in a staggering $1.5 billion in sales every year – more than any other mall in the United States. With over 250 stores, there’s something for everyone here, including many retailers that you won’t find in other local malls. Rolex’s United States flagship store is located there, for instance. The mall is anchored by Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom and Saks.
