Finally a mall worth speaking about has been built in my neck of the woods. Victoria Gardens in Rancho Cucamonga is a pretty interesting outdoor mall. The funny thing is they wanted to have a downtown feel to this mall, but there is no such thing as a real downtown area in Rancho Cucamonga. Instead they built a mall from the ground up making the facade of the buildings have a downtown urban feel to them. Maybe Riverside should wake up and take notice and see what type of profits are coming to this new boomtown. Hell, Riverside already has a real downtown, but maybe they are behind the times. Well enough about that archaic city, let’s talk about the new utopias that are trying something creative.

Victorian Gardens has many cool and trendy stores for all ages and many different places to eat. There’s the food court and if you want more of a nice sit down style there are places like Cheesecake Factory and if money is not the issue, then there’s Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse.

The only thing that I found odd is that the website doesn’t reflect the trendy hip feel of Victoria Gardens. What they need is a cool website design like this place offers.
