View From The Second Floor
Opened in 1974, Independence Center features 130+ storefronts, 3 anchor stores, and several outparcels, including restaurants and a small strip mall. Independence Center features two levels, as well as a third level in the center of the mall. This level contains the food court and a children's play area, that features a double-decker carousel. The design of the mall is that of a triangle, with the three anchors representing each point, and the stores strewn around the edge of the mall with the center opened up. Mall entrances are located in between, two in the back and one in the front. The mall underwent renovations in 2004, adding more retail space.
Simon Property Group currently owns Independence Center but sold the mall to a private property group.
The independence center is on the decline do to crime.
