Manhattan Mall, Shopping center at 33rd Street and Sixth Avenue, Manhattan, US
Manhattan Mall is a shopping center at 33rd Street and Sixth Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. The building contains two above-ground floors and two basement levels dedicated to retail, along with office space in its upper sections.
The shopping center opened in 1989 as A&S Plaza, replacing the original Gimbels department store that had operated at this location from 1910 to 1986. This transformation marked a shift from the traditional retail model to a modern multi-tenant shopping environment.
The retail destination reflects the evolution of Manhattan's shopping landscape, transforming from a traditional department store into a multi-level shopping center.
The center sits directly at Herald Square station where multiple subway lines converge, with entrances providing convenient access from throughout the city. You can easily reach the mall from any borough by taking the subway.
During the early 2000s, the building's upper floors were converted to office space while the lower levels continued serving as retail. This renovation reflects how urban structures adapt to shifting economic demands.
