A few years ago, when I was spending weekends in Nassau County, Roosevelt Field was my main shopping destination. It was nice to be in an air conditioned mall, especially on those hot, humid New York summer days. Hi Chandra,

Everything started going downhill as soon as Stern's closed it's location there and then everywhere I don't remember how many years ago. It's been ages. Another alternative for visitors to New York City who must have a mall experience is the excellent ones on Long Island. Sure, you have to travel farther, but the public transportation is efficient and the effort is worth it. Long Island's malls were one of the best things about living in Queens on the Queens-Long Island border when I still called New York home. It's been a while since I've been to several, but I always pay a visit to Roosevelt Field in Garden City when I'm in town. And, of course, Queens Center was a staple for me, and it rocks. When I moved, massive renovations were underway that I hated not being around to see completed. I hope they all turned out as spectacular as they seemed in the earlier stages.
