The Block at Orange
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Block at Orange (formerly The City Shopping Center) is an open-air shopping mall developed by The Mills Corporation in Orange, California, a few miles southeast of Disneyland. It is popular with teenage skateboarders, housing Vans skatepark. It is also popular for its nightlife because of its AMC 30 Movie Theater, Lucky Strike Lanes, Dave & Buster's and Alcatraz, a San Francisco themed brewpub named after - and borrowing some themes from - the former prison at Alcatraz Island.
Prior to 1998, the mall was an enclosed mall called The City Shopping Center, featuring anchor stores May Company and The Broadway, anchoring The City edge city complex. Mills purchased the site, originally considering conversion to an outlet mall, but instead converted it to an outdoor lifestyle center after seeing the success of the Irvine Spectrum. The slogan was The Block at Orange... It Isn't Square.
The Virgin Megastore was featured in Borat! Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan where Borat kidnapps Pamela Anderson.
