Poughkeepsie Galleria

As you probably all remember, I have written about several malls in New York and Connecticut, and today I am going to write about another one! Today I am going to talk about the Poughkeepsie Galleria, which is a mall that has two floors, a total of 1,100,000 square feet, and a total of 105 businesses including four anchor tenants, which makes it the largest shopping center in Dutchess County. In this blog post, I will be discussing the history of the mall and the various businesses there, in hopes that it will convince all of you reading to check it out.

The mall first opened on August 1, 1987, and it featured five anchor stores, which were G. Fox & Co., Jordan Marsh, Lechmere, Filene’s, and JCPenney, all of which have since closed. Several other businesses joined the mall after moving from the next-door South Hills Mall, which were Steinbach and Sears, both of which have also since closed.
