Shopping Centers & Malls in Hutchinson, MN

“Hutchinson is my hometown so it was nice to be back for a visit & see the things that have changed and haven't changed. Target having a Starbucks is always a plus. I was able to grab some last minute Christmas items. My only request is more lower rise lounge pants. Less crop tops! ?”

“This was one of my favorite places in the world when I was a young kid, this was "my mall" I have very fond memories of buying, selling, and drooling over all the Pokemon cards I would never have in Grand slam than going to RadioShack with my dad while my mom shopped at Jo-Ann fabrics, and finishing the night off by buying a boys surprise bag at dollar tree back when it was a much more unique store than it is today. I wish I could give it a higher score than I did in my heart it would be a five, but in reality it's barely a 3 don't get me wrong there are some amazing stores in there right now definitely give it a visit with places like the Wheel and Cog Children's Museum, Top Deck Gaming and Act Your Age, LLC it is a rather inviting and safe place for children and parents to hang out and there's a couple original stores too like Jo-Ann fabrics and bed bath & body works but the problem is that when JCPenney's was bought out by Marshalls they completely cut themselves off from the interior of the mall and there's not even a convenient way to get from the mall into the store making the inside of the mall quite irrelevant nowadays. I honestly don't know why they did this I always wondered if it was some sort of quote unquote chopping off the hand save the arm situation but that doesn't even make sense to me because you would think that having access to the mall would just be a benefit. I mean they're Marshalls people are going to go there no matter where they are I think you would do better for the mall and Marshalls to connect them in the interior we're at the very least I'll make a door on that side of the mall then all you have to do is walk outside and walk back in as it is right now if you go into the mall you have to walk all the way back to the main entrance and then walk on the outside of the building all the way back to the end of the mall to get into Marshalls and there is that exit on that side of the mall that takes you out back by the restrooms but that's just as far away from the main Marshalls entrance so it's the same problem so if you are reading this because you're going to Marshalls take the time to go out of your way and check out the mall too because cool places like this need us.”
