Fort Lauderdale Shopping
Welcome to the Greater Fort Lauderdale RetailGuide!
For balmy South Florida shopping experiences, Greater Fort Lauderdale venues from upscale malls and boulevards to outlet centers and flea markets combine retail, dining, and entertainment. Fashionable Las Olas Boulevard, Las Olas Riverfront, and The Gallery at Beach Place continue mixing boutiques with trendy eateries and watering holes. The Galleria at Fort Lauderdale, boasting Neiman-Marcus and Saks 5th Avenue, also has a dining and nightlife scene, plus a spa.
Alas, Burdines -- the “Florida Store” once anchoring downtown Fort Lauderdale, where county government now operates -- has faded into the sunset of takeovers and consolidation, as have Jordan Marsh, Britt’s, and J. Byron. Yet waves of replacements have surfaced.
Coral Ridge Mall has taken on new life with Target. Plantation’s Broward Mall now boasts Macy’s, along with Dillard’s to go with original anchors like Sears and J.C. Penney. Pompano Square has been demolished to make way for Pompano Citi Centre, anchored by Lowe’s, Macy’s, Sears, and J.C. Penney. In Hollywood, Seminole Paradise, next to the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, features shopping, dining, nightlife, plus weekly fireworks. Fort Lauderdale’s Swap Shop ranks as the region’s largest indoor-outdoor flea market, with drive-in movie screens to boot. Collectible hunters flock to Dania’s Historic Antique Shopping District, and Dania’s Design Center of the Americas beckons with stylish furnishings. Weston Town Center has upscale salons and fine dining, and Outdoor World Bass Pro Shops reels in sporting enthusiasts. In Sunrise, Sawgrass Mills, the world's largest designer outlet mall, has unveiled The Colonnade Outlets at Sawgrass, a $38-million last word in high-end luxury fashion.
