Let's get this out of the way...NorthPark is a MALL. Sure, it checks the box on most annoying things about malls: parking, getting lost, the hustle and bustle. But, this mall really is different. It was opened in 1965 and at the time was the world’s largest indoor climate-controlled shopping center. Well, the secret sauce is the gentleman that opened NorthPark, Raymond Nasher. The Nasher family is kind of a big deal in the international contemporary art community. So, what does this have to do with NorthPark? It doubles as a very significant contemporary art gallery as well. At NorthPark you'll come across amazing sculptures and installations from Anthony Gormley, Andy Warhol, and James Rosenquist. Plus, it's architecturally pretty rad, and the tenant mix is actually really good. So, if you have to shop in Dallas, strongly consider NorthPark.
