Orland
Square
is
a
leading
regional
mall
located
in
Southwest
suburban,
Orland
Park,
Illinois.
While
I
wouldn’t
categorize
it
has
a
high
end
fashion
center,
it
is
a
pleasant
shopping
mall
that’s
well
managed
and
maintained.
The
mall
has
your
typical
national
brand
department
stores:
Macy’s
and
JC
Penny’s.
The
mall
also
has
one
regional,
high
end
department
store,
Von
Maur.
Because
the
mall
is
the
largest
regional
mall
in
this
area
of
South
Suburban
Cook
County
Illinois,
I
think
the
region
would
be
better
served
if
the
mall
had
more
high
end
shops,
stores
and
eateries.
By
doing
so,
the
mall
would
reach
a
broader
market
share
of
families
with
higher
end
incomes,
living
in
some
of
the
areas
higher
end
neighborhoods
and
community
developments.
All-in-all,
it’s
a
decent
mall.
It’s
my
hope,
that
the
Mall
will
eventually
expand
to
accommodate
all
of
its
regional
citizens.
The
former
Sears
Department
store
covers
a
vast
amount
of
space
which
can
be
incorporated
into
additional
shoppes,
making
the
Mall
a
more
appealing
destination.
At
present,
Orland
Square
is
simply
your
average
suburban,
indoor
mall.
Though
well
maintained
and
clean,
esthetically,
the
mall
lacks
luster
and
beauty:
it
resembles
a
90’s
area
concrete
wall
of
indoor
shops.
Not
attractive,
yet
clean.
Were
the
mall
expansive
and
architecturally
pleasing,
I
would
have
rated
it
a
5-star
mall.
Truthfully
speaking,
it
has
the
makings
of
becoming
a
beautiful,
Mecca
for
regional
travelers,
tourists
and
residents.
Along
the
exterior
of
the
mall’s
outside
property,
lies
new
hosts
of
restaurants(some
new
to
the
region),
shops
and
specialty
stores,
which
have
enhanced
the
existing
market
fairly
well.
Interestingly
enough,
the
mall’s
exterior
is
where
it’s
growth
appears
to
be
taking
shape.
Maybe
a
visionary,
w/the
monies/capital,
will
come
along
and
breathe
new
life
in
Orland
Square?
Until
that
time
comes,
we’ll
have
to
settle
for
that
which
we
have
and
on
a
good
day,
travel
to
our
northern
suburbs
where
the
true
malls(plural)
exists.
