Westfield Garden State Plaza Gets A Fresh New Look

PARAMUS, N.J., Jan. 26, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Westfield Garden State Plaza—hailed as one of the most influential malls in the country for retail brands—is moving forward with a stylish makeover and amenities upgrade that includes the opening of a new Dining Hall; interactive children's play area; fully redesigned interior spaces and seating; exterior improvements; and new customer-focused digital conveniences.

After recently remodeling the property with new valet parking areas, new points of entry, sparkling modern restrooms, and elegant flooring—the upcoming project (to commence in  February 2017) will enhance Garden State Plaza's status as the best retail destination in the tri-state area with the most complete collection of goods, services, food, and fashion.

In many ways, this process of revitalization exemplifies Westfield's strategy to elevate experiences for consumers with fantastic dining, hospitality, events, entertainment, and technologies all playing essential roles.

Project details include: 

• A revitalized Dining Hall and interactive play area. Opening in October 2017.
• Introduction of new state-of-the-art digital media screens.
• Fully redesigned interior spaces, seating, and amenities—as well as new accent painting and lighting improvements.

• Interior and exterior landscaping.
• Parking lot lighting and paving improvements.

• Replacement of heating and cooling systems with improved efficiencies.
• A comprehensive upgrade of IT infrastructure including improved Wi-Fi, wayfinding and beacon technology and communication, music systems, and digital services for retailers.
• The integration of cutting-edge new security operations systems and ultra-modern back-of-house access control systems.

Later this year, the property's retail lineup will be made even more dynamic with the arrivals of Amazon Books, Nespresso, Fabletics, Mighty Quinn's BBQ, and the first Marc Cain store in the United States.
