BIGMallrat's Editorial Review
 The Fremont Hub Shopping Center has been a local
landmark since 1961. This mall seems to be moving towards a power-center.
More and
more big box stores have moved in and provide enough reasons to visit.
Stores
Anchor stores include Target (replacing Montgomery
Ward), Cost Plus World Market, Marshalls,
Ross Dress for Less, Bed Bath & Beyond, Safeway, Borders, Trader
Joe's, and Michaels.
Regrettably, with the addition of big-box stores,
the interior walkway looses its importance. However, this design
allows smart shoppers to park once and walk to multiple stores with ease.
Maintenance
Although the landscaping is pleasing, we noticed
missing awnings, lights not on at night, and a perplexing parking lot.
Parking
Parking can be a little tricky, but you'll find
a spot fairly quickly. In fact, I'd bet most people simply drive
from store to store.
Location
The Hub is located on Mowry Avenue at
Fremont Boulevard. From Mowry, it's easy to pass this center by if
you are focused on the road, so keep an eye out for it.
In summary
Although not a cutting-edge mall, the Hub features
pleasing landscaping, up-to-date colors,
and more than a few stores to make it worth visiting over and over.
