Shopping Centers & Malls in Skokie, IL

“I've been patronizing the businesses at this shopping center for more than a decade. Shops have come and gone throughout the years and I am amazed that new businesses continue to open up shop here. I see that the Bear Paddle Swim School is under construction, Rock Star Nails recently opened and one of my faves, Barnes & Noble, continues to do well here. For the last year, I visit Village Crossing several times a week. You would be amazed at the amount of cars here before the crack of dawn! I mean, you may be sleeping, but I and other workout fanatics, stockroom workers, cleaners, vampires, are all here before the sun rises.”

“I've walked every inch of this mall hundreds of times over and I'm really impressed that it continues to thrive, even as other local malls are dying. Maybe it's proximity but I think it's the mix of familiar stores and new. Trendy restaurants, high end luxury boutiques, one-of-a-kind places, pop-ups...Old Orchard--who are you???? Since this is open-air, you'll get your steps even in inclement weather. I recently went to the Downton Abbey exhibit and now there is a Titanic exhibit, I'm glad to see you taking chances and expanding your horizons, OO. New place Puttshack opening soon? Happy fore you!”

“I love the deals that you can get on the greeting cards. The store is usually well stocked on its normal materials. However it is hard to keep it clean and organized in certain departments. My guess is because they are short staff like many places still are. The staff there are friendly and trying their best in a demanding retail job that is constantly busy.”
