BIGMallrat's Editorial Review

At first glance, Shoppers Square in Reno is rather unlike other malls. It appears to be a giant box. However, don't let the exterior appearance fool you. Inside awaits some unique shops.

Atmosphere

Once inside, Shoppers Square is a bit unusual. The mall corridor is rather narrow, maybe 10 to 15 feet wide. Banking on the trend of enclosing malls, in 1977 the owner added a structure in front of the stores to enclose the center. While unusual, it does provide protection from the cold Reno winters.

Stores

You'll find a variety of budget-minded and locally owned retailers. Plus, with a high occupancy, nearly 50 stores, there are quite a few shops to pique the interest of visitors. Although there are no major department stores, it doesn't distract from its draw.

In order to attract more big-box retailers, the owners plan a 92,000 square feet expansion.

Location

Shoppers Square is located at the corner of East Plumb Lane and South Virginia Street. From Hwy 395, exit west on East Plumb Lane.
