Because NorthPark is…


A fantastic art gallery: From the huge (48 feet tall, 12 tons) orange steel sculpture Ad Astra to the works Three Places (bottom), 1983 and Corridor Pin, Blue to the center itself (twice given awards by the American Institute of Architects), it’s always been a home to great design and art.

A babysitter: On a Friday night, we drop the tweens off at the AMC Theaters 15 and go downstairs to have cocktails and dinner. And, from the crush of kids roaming the theaters, we know you do, too.

A library: Bookmarks, part of the Dallas Public Library, is a nearly 2,000-square-foot library for kids 12 and under.
A quiet space: CenterPark, the gorgeous outdoor space in the mall’s center, is a wonderful spot to relax, attend parties, or contemplate how much you just spent at Nordstrom.

And, oh, yeah, a great place to shop: The stores (everything from Barneys New York to Ted Baker of London, from Forever XXI to Nine West) speak for themselves.
