The Shops at Perry Crossing

This is now the shops at Perry Crossing. Everything is new, the town center in the middle dale now has tables and chairs and a comfy covered area with soft chairs and a fireplace. I hope they get Charming Charlie’s here!

Mall me! Open air shopping areas are appealing, if they’re kept groomed. This seems to be in order here. But, snow helps everything look better. Good choice for chain shopping, if you’re up for it.

I enjoy the outdoor mall with the firepits but I still enjoy a canopy or few covered areas for protection from mother nature. Christmas time is very festive with the carolers, fire pits and everyone bundled up scurrying from store to store in the snow. When I was requesting change for the parking meters I was told by one of the shop clerks that it is a donation used for Metropolis up keep of the outdoor area and they don’t write tickets. Whether true or not I still place money in the meters when I have change. I haven’t received a ticket yet and hope it’s true.
Terrific location to spend the day shopping, have lunch at one of the many resturants, continue shopping at the many stores you haven’t hit yet, then dinner and a movie without leaving the area.
Plainfield has certainly grown up in the past 15 years with the addition of a new outdoor mall, restaurants, shops along with our favorite small businesses. Less traffic and many restaurants and stores to enjoy.

It is a fairly nice outdoor mall. A variety of stores, but JCPenny and Dicks are the only anchors. It’s an enjoyable place to kill time and shop.

to be honest– I am not sure why they charge for parking meters to park in front of stores, when most of the time the place is not busy. That is really odd to me– it’s not helping anything i usually find free parking by the one or two stores i want to go to and then avoid the rest. Also some of the one ways and stops are really confusing. Lastly– more food options actually at the «mall» instead of having to drive somewhere else close by would be fine with me.

I love the idea and architectural appeal of this mall outlet, but it is lacking on the variety of stores Clay Terrace and Hamilton Town Center have. I will say RAVE Motion Pictures theater is my favorite. I love the design, the large digital screens, and the tables you can eat at throughout the theater.

It’s got nearly everything a mall does without the major anchor stores (I don’t count JC Penny and Old Navy). The worst part about it is shopping in the cold and rain are not fun! And we all know how Indiana weather is. One minute clear, the next minute monsoon.
