The Shops at Ithaca is a shopping mall with a mix of stores and dining options. It features a Mexican restaurant with table service and Sicilian Delight pizza, along with a Subway in the food court. The mall has a one-mile walking trail, making it a popular spot for exercise. However, many store spaces are empty, and some well-known stores like Bed Bath & Beyond are leaving. The mall also houses Cayuga Health services in a part of the building. The overall atmosphere is somewhat gloomy, especially since much of the mall feels empty and outdated. The management, led by a dedicated general manager, strives to keep the mall running smoothly and create a welcoming environment. Despite its issues, the mall remains a place where people come for walking or to visit the few remaining stores. It reflects the typical experience of many U.S. malls, balancing moments of good dining and community use with challenges from declining retail occupancy.
Another empty mall in America. The Mexican restaurant is excellent. Sicilian Delight is great pizza. One mile of walking trail.

We need one in our town. We are center of several small farming communities and 50 miles to any large city. We have a Walmart so could use a Target as well.

Target here is good, clean and large, but most other shops either moved or closed. Only limited option left.
