I know, $2.00 isn’t much and it may take a few months to get here, but hey, why not? It only takes a couple seconds…

Guide to Sacramento Area Malls

Article by ExploreSAC on Friday, 5 of September , 2008 at 8:46 am

If you’re new to the Sacramento area, one of the first things you’ll probably want to find is where the shopping malls are located. There are several in the greater Sacramento area, from the open-air Downtown Plaza to the expanding Roseville Galleria.

Arden Fair
Location: Sacramento, CA
Anchor Stores: JC Penney, Macy’s, Nordstrom, Sears
For many years, Arden Fair reigned supreme, as far as indoor shopping malls. It’s light, airy, has nice stores, and parking isn’t bad (except for around holidays). Nextdoor is the Marketplace at Arden Fair with restaurants & a movie theater.

Country Club Plaza
Location: Sacramento, CA
Anchor Stores: Bed Bath & Beyond, Gottschalks, Macy’s, Ross Dress For Less, Sport Chalet
Renovated in 2003, Country Club Plaza is the area’s smallest indoor shopping mall. It doesn’t nearly get as much traffic as the other malls, which may be an attraction for many shoppers.

Sunrise Mall
Location: Citrus Heights, CA
Anchor Stores: Albertsons, JC Penney, Macy’s Women’s & Children, Macy’s Men’s & Home, Sears, United Artists 4
With the addition of a food court in 2007, Sunrise Mall is one of the area’s oldest indoor shopping malls. It has the typical stores found in a typical mall, but does have a United Artists movie theater.

Westfield Downtown Plaza
Location: Downtown Sacramento, CA
Anchor Stores: Century Theatres 7, Hard Rock Cafe, Macy’s, Macy’s Mens & Furniture
Downtown Plaza is an open-air mall located near Capital Mall and I-5. It houses a large indoor food court and movie theater, but also has a fair number of vacancies.

Westfield Galleria at Roseville
Location: Roseville, CA
Anchor Stores: Borders Books, Crate & Barrel, JC Penney, Macy’s, Nordstrom, Sears
The Roseville Galleria, located at Hwy 65 and Galleria Blvd, is the gem of the shopping malls in the area. It has many upscale stores and is expanding, but parking can be a major hassle.

Tower Theatre & Cafe

Article by ExploreSAC on Sunday, 20 of July , 2008 at 6:34 pm

Tower Theatre and Tower Cafe, on Broadway in downtown Sacramento, mark the location where the Tower Records music store chain started. The Tower Cafe now sits where the original Tower Drugs was located. It was in the back of the drug store that Tower Records was born. The original Tower Records neon sign, see below, is now above the cafe. The Tower Theatre is classic 1940’s era and is a favorite for indie movie buffs. Tower Records is now closed, but the theatre and cafe live on.
