Lafayette Square Mall - 3919 Lafayette Rd. 317-291-6390. This mall, like the area around it, has fallen into disrepair over the past 20 years. The mall is big, with little stores however, and lots of fascinating retro architecture. Shops include Macy's, Bath & Body Works, Champs and Old Navy. There are also a number of local speciality and boutique shops. Many cater to hip hop culture and living.

Metropolis - 2499 Futura Park Way, Plainfield. 317-203-4555. A bizarre innovation in outdoor shopping, the Metropolis is the 'future mall.' With modern architecture and unique events, this is the latest mall in the region. Anchored by JC Penney and Dick's Sporting Goods, they also have Ann Taylor Loft, Barne's & Nobles, Coldwater Creek and more. They also have a huge movie theatre with 18 screens.
