So I went to Southwest Plaza today I have not been there since the re-model and I am very disappointed.
Some of the stores I loved to go to this time of year did not come back (Hallmark and St. Nicks just to mention two).
The Mall is very pretty but with the exception of the main retailers I will have to say most of the other stores are not up my alley. I like Eddie Bauer but they had very little outdoor clothing and jeans (lots of coats) so did not buy anything there either.
Food court is just Chipotle guess we will have to wait to see if anything good goes in there next year.
My guess if you have a younger crowd to buy for you will like this mall and or if you have a much larger budget than mine.
I left disappointed and spent no money there.
Will hit Colorado Mills and maybe Park Meadows (when it is cold I do not do the outdoor malls) next weekend but glad I bought over the Internet.
That's a bummer. I haven't had a chance to get back in since they finished remodeling and was really hoping it would be a good kick start for that mall. Thanks for the review!

I was chatting with a store clerk at SW Plaza many months ago and telling her why the mall was dead. She seemed a bit baffled that online stores often have no overhead, no health plan, no lease, etc.
Oh, how I remember the heyday of SWP!! 30 years ago we lived close to there, before 470 went round and Highlands Ranch was mostly a bunch of wooden sticks with orange tape. That mall was bustling every day, and at Christmas it turned into a mosh pit. The theater, the go-kart arena,... new isn't always improved. I reckon that retail era is gone for good.
