Very nice mall with lots and lots of great retailers. They are extremely busy everyday of the year though. This is the busiest mall that I have seen but they do have every store that you could want to shop it. I do recommend this mall and they also have very nice restaurants.
Westfield Mall has gotten a bad reputation over the last few years because of a few people. It is still a great destination spot for anyone who needs anything! You can find everything from candles to appliances and everything in between. The movie theater at the mall even boasts 6$ movie tickets on Tuesday evenings for every movie!
This mall has a ton of stores! In the last few years the mall has really grown to include stores like the Potter Barn, Coach, Build-a-Bear, Motherhood Maternity...lots of great stores! They do have "stroller" rental-kinda pricey! There are stores for everyone here, and a nice sized food court with some kids activities! Also check out the movie theater which is located upstairs!
Franklin Park is like going to 5th Avenue in NYC for those of us who live out in the boondocks. Build a Bear, Disney Store, Abercrombie, and the Gap are stores we can't find anywhere else. An added plus are the restaurants on the perimeter of the mall that are accessible from the parking lots. For older kids and teens given the option, they would rather go to Franklin Park Mall rather than anywhere else.
I know it is a mall, but my kids really love the Westfield Franklin Park Shopping Mall. My 3 and 6 year old boys love the play area in front of JC Penney, as well as the Build-a-Bear workshop, and Disney stores.
The food court is always a big hit with our family, and who wouldn't love a mall that has a movie theater in it! I've never had a difficult time finding a parking space either. It's the best!
