## Background (Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0, shortened)

Southdale Center is a super-regional shopping mall located in Edina, Minnesota, a suburb of the Twin Cities. It opened in 1956 and is the first fully enclosed, climate-controlled shopping mall in the United States. Southdale Center has 1,297,608 square feet (120,551.7 m2; 29.7890 acres; 12.05517 ha) of leasable retail space, and contains 106 retail tenants. The mall is owned by Simon Property Group, and major tenants include Macy's, Dave & Buster's, AMC Theatres, Life Time Athletic, Kowalski's, and the Hennepin County Service Center.
Victor Gruen, the center's architect, designed the mall to challenge the car-centric America that was rising in the 1950s.
